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.

    Great product

    Posted by Isaac Booth on 25th Dec 2023

    I have bought two of these not. My dad has a back problem and guns with kick really hurts it. This takes the recoil of my 300 PRC to like a 22mag. No joke.

    This is my second Hypertap and I wouldn't buy anything else. I have tried many different brands and yours is by far the best. Bill

    Hypertap

    Posted by Trevor McIntyre on 7th Dec 2023

    Ive bought 2 of these now and they are on the hunting rifles i have for my children which are 6 and 8. The removal of recoil has helped so much with my boys not flinching or beeing scared of the kick. I use electronic noise cancelling ear muffs because the sound is significantly louder. Works as advertised and will be buying one for my magnum rifle.

    Hypertap Muzzle Brake

    Posted by Chris Coleman on 6th Dec 2023

    I now have three of these on my precision rifles that I use for PRS and love them! Not only do they reduce recoil to minimal levels, they are easy to install and time, and they look great! Easy to clean as well. I plan on getting a few more for other firearms I own.

    Hypertap muzzel device

    Posted by Red on 5th Dec 2023

    I have a remington 700 long range in 300winmag that wasn't very forgiving when it came to recoil, had the barrel threaded and installed a hypertap brake and now I can watch my shots it works amazing on both my 300s. I also got 1 for my remington 700 sps tactic in 308 its just as effective but a little more thumpy for the shooter with a shorter barrel but still worth it feels like a light 223 load on my 308. Over all an excellent product easy to time (use a small drop of oil on the shoulder of the barrel when you're timing it, it makes it way smother and easier to time and tighten) I will definitely be getting more in the future. Stay free Amarican for your friends to the north.
