DESCRIPTION

Developed from the ground up and backed by knowledge gained from years of pushing the edge of muzzle device performance, the Hypertap muzzle brake delivers more than we’ve ever offered before. Our proprietary Hybrid Baffle Design combined with advanced Convergent-Divergent port geometry yields an unprecedented recoil reduction of over 84%*, nearly 10% higher than our M4-72, while maintaining modest 35-degree baffle angles and generous bore clearance. This results in exceptional safety, less gas blowback, better accuracy, and higher overall shooter comfort than any other device in its class. Fully tunable gas biasing allows the shooter to further reduce, or even eliminate, sight picture movement while firing. An integral universal timing nut eliminates the need for shims and allows quick field installation & removal using an adjustable wrench or the lightweight spanner tools (included). Additional features include: zero flash increase, compact lightweight design, a rugged skeletonized crown, cleaning friendly design, heat-treated stainless steel construction, a tough Ionbond® CrCN finish for superior durability and, as always, 100% Made in the USA.

Minimum recommended barrel length 14.5”

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

When selecting a caliber for one of our muzzle devices, the correct choice is based on your cartridge's actual bullet diameter. For example; if you have a .300 Win Mag, you would select a 7.62/.308 muzzle device. This is because the bullet for that cartridge is a .308" diameter. For a more detailed explanation and examples, check out our Caliber Fit Guide.

Before you begin drilling out any ports on your Hypertap, it is very important to decide if you even need to do so.  With the Hypertap reducing such a high amount of recoil, there is often not enough force remaining to induce muzzle rise.  Unnecessary drilling of the brake could result in overcompensation - actually driving the muzzle down after each shot.  Additionally, excessive drilling can reduce the brake's overall recoil reduction rating.  This is due to the internal gases no longer following their intended path of the convergent-divergent baffles.  If after these considerations, you do decide to drill the Hypertap, we recommend starting with the front-most pilot holes and using a drill diameter smaller than the max diameter listed in the manual for your caliber.

The Slim Body Hypertap has an O.D. of 0.90", while the Standard Body has an O.D. of 1.09". Some users may prefer the fitment of one body type or another depending on the diameter of their firearm's barrel. In regards to performance, there is a negligible performance loss with the Slim Body, simply due to there being less internal surface area for the gases to be redirected. The exact amount of loss greatly depends on your caliber and load, but for example, standard 147gr FMJ .308 measures 70% recoil reduction with the Standard Body, and 67% with the Slim Body.

You can, we just don't really recommend it. Reverse-venting brakes do just that; vent gases in the reverse direction from what they were traveling. This design is how such high recoil reduction ratings are achieved. But because of that, gases and concussion are directed back to the shooter. Barrels below 14.5" can cause these forces to be quite drastic to some individuals, and more extreme depending on what caliber you are shooting. For a more detailed description, you can read our Muzzle Brake Safety Memo.

    HYPERTRAP MUZZLE BRAKE

    Posted by ROBERT LEEDS on 28th Jul 2026

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Performance – One of the Best Muzzle Brakes Available! The Precision Armament Hypertap® Muzzle Brake exceeded my expectations. Installation was straightforward, and the machining and finish are top-notch. The reduction in felt recoil and muzzle rise is immediately noticeable, making follow-up shots much faster and keeping the rifle on target. Whether shooting from the bench or in the field, the Hypertap provides excellent control without compromising accuracy. It's especially impressive on larger calibers where recoil management really matters. If you're looking for a premium muzzle brake that delivers exceptional performance, the Precision Armament Hypertap is well worth the investment. I would definitely purchase another one and highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their rifle's handling and shooting experience.

    Hypertap

    Posted by Harrison Rahn on 22nd Jul 2026

    I have to remove my suppressor to legally hunt in Canada and decided to put this brake on in its place. It has so far been phenomenal on my 30cal Seekins Precision rifle. POI did not change between the brake and my suppressor which I was honestly surprised about. Zero concussion from behind the rifle and it makes the recoil feel like a .223. Definitely very happy with the purchase and would recommend it, but i will be switching back to my suppressor after the hunt. (For the sake of my ears). Great product, great finish, great recoil reduction.

    Hypertap muzzle break

    Posted by Donald Jones on 24th Jun 2026

    I cannot say enough about the customer service with this company, it has been great!!! Whenever I call, the phone is quickly answered by a human in this country. Alot better than the 5 mo run around i ve experienced with walmart.com and their vendors. I will be trying out the muzzle break in the future fall but the machining looks excellent. Reviews on this product changed my choice to this product as well this company.

    Fantastic

    Posted by Johnson on 15th Jun 2026

    I bought the Hypertap muzzle brake for my 45-70 (16" barrel) because of the legendary kick you all know or have heard about...her recoil is so mean it ought to be registered. I mean she kicks like it owes the mule money...Son, there's so much nastiness that the recoil has the emotional stability of a raccoon in a trash can. But, I digress. When I shot it with my new Hypertap brake, it all just faded away. Teeth didn't rattle, no headaches, no need for a beer and a break between shots. Seriously, I can shoot all day with this thing and I'm an old man. Fact.

    6.5 Hypertap

    Posted by Vince on 3rd Jun 2026

    I own three of these bad boys one for my .308, 5.56 and last 6.5 creedmoor Yes there’s a lot of marketing for muzzle brakes at the end of the day this is a one done so far so good. All three of my rifles now shoot like a 22lr. One of the main reasons why I purchased from precision armament is because they don’t advertise they let the muzzle brakes do the talking. This company is a “if you know you know” if you don’t know sorry for your loss….
