Has anyone tried the 3 port anchor brake on magnum calibers in comparison to the single port?

I installed the 3 port the day I got my scythe, so that's all I know. It's def softer than my DD Enticer S Ti. Similar to the L Ti.

what height rings are people using for their scythe with a pic rail? the larger diameter than my TBAC ultra obscures field of view on low power (~2-5x)

I noticed a difference between 3 port and flat end cap on a 6 creedmoor. I imagine the gap would be increased with more powder being burned.

Does anyone happen to know which cerakote finish best matches the Scythe Ti? I am ordering a new barrel and I figure I might as well try to match it.

I am thinking ine came with an optional end plate to swap out the brake cap. Never changed it out.

The Scythe was my first can so I have little to reference it to, but I really enjoy shooting with it. Shooting a 7mm mag or prc with this can is great.

Grabbed it to shoot a badger the other day as we were driving back to town after hunting. Shot it with no muffs or plugs and it was zero noise issue with the 7mm mag.

What rifle you going to run it on? I’ve got my eye on buying one for my 18” 6.5 saum for next season.

Howa 1500 30-06. I’m getting it chopped and threaded currently and the can is in jail. I’ll post something once I have it functioning

Picked up a Scythe and DD Wolfhunter yesterday in part to this thread. Thanks guys. FYI - Capital Armory had 55 left when I ordered yesterday afternoon per the guy I was speaking with. I know there's another rokslider who bought one so we're at 53 now. Only thing I'm hoping for is that I can get lucky like the rest of these guys getting quick approvals.

I picked up the bravo 3 port brake to see if it makes a difference or not. If anything I'm wondering if it will help gas escape better for gas guns and I wouldn't mind more recoil mitigation on my 300prc.
How did your tests turn out on 300 with brake?

I don't know what the recoil reduction is for a 6.5 prc but it's okay at best. I went from a brake to a can, and spotting hits at 500+ is almost impossible. I think stock design has a lot to do with that also.

It sorta was in that aspect. I had never shot or used a can, but they are all the rage so I picked up a scythe. It's much better for my ears if I don't use ear pro in a quick shot scenario..
But as far as trying to spot my own hits, it didn't help anything. I ordered a new stock to see if that helps.

The brake is still sitting in my range bag. I have yet to even try it. It looks a bit odd with the black finish on the tan can. I havent been to the range much since season started and it's been working well enough as is so changing it during the middle of season isn't on my to-do list when everything is dialed in.
