This is not Andy. I called him. He got hacked!!

Looks like Christmas for somebody.😁

The brakes may be screw clamp or have jam nuts (double nuts, the second tightened against the first to jam it and keep it from changing position) as well. A Smith will cut the threads so the break lines up correctly when the brake runs out of threads on the barrel. A Smith may also cut the brake such that it looks like it is a built-in piece of the barrel, where possible. A great Smith, like Todd, makes it look seamless as seen in my previous pic. Not a dumb question. We can't always learn without asking some questions, or sometimes being corrected.

This is a timed or clocked brake. Custom Muzzy by Todd @ Southern Xpress built Sept. 2021. Shot my first Muley Oct. 2021at 354 yards in a gusting wind of 15 to 40 mph. Not only functional, but very beautiful. (111gr Blackhorn 209, 45 cal Arrowhead NS (nosize) bullet.) Brake worked great. Recounted my hunt in Campfire.

By Bass Pro on the Eastside is Todd South, Southern Xpress Custom Rifles. He does all of that and more.

Thanks. My eyes aren't what they used to be.

What name is stamped on the lower as manufacturer?

Merry Christmas great friends and acquaintances! Thank you for all of the great memories, fun items, much learning, and wonderful transactions. May happiness, health, peace and prosperity be yours this holiday season and the next year! FREE! Good will to all who desire it!

My error, yes, .223 (not quite a 5.56 but in the same family and nearly identical). The Wylde is typically the barrel set up to receive either 223 or 5.56 more generously. I habitually, although not correctly, tend to group the 223 with the 5.56 since they are in the same family and I don't encounter the 223 barrel, other than 223 Wylde, in the AR platform. So my apologies. 22 Nosler does come in 55gr and 224 Valkyrie could potentially be 55gr although normally a heavier grain is used, like 90gr in a Valkyrie and also 77gr in a Nosler. Also, if you can find the barrel, the 22 Hornet, 218 Bee, 219 Donaldson Wasp, 220 Swift, 221 Remington Fireball, 222 Remington, 223 WSSM, 224 Valkyrie, and 225 Winchester, among others could have 55 gr bullets and may be used in the AR platform. I'm sure someone else more knowledge could even add more. Currently, I'm getting ready to play with my AR 17-223. 223 necked down to 17 cal. Should make a great Varmint rifle.

55gr is typically 5.56, but good to get a clarification. 1-9 twist is typically great for 55 gr from my experience and understanding.1-8 and 1-7 twist for heavier loads like 64gr. and 77gr.

Bill@roofer is having some really hard, emotional times right now. Please remember him in your best wishes and prayers.

PM sent.

Purchased the wrong size last year and never returned them. I have three Wrangler's pants as well.

AIM Surplus has Radical AR15's for $419.95 on line! Just an FYI for anybody looking.

I am looking to play with the different 17 caliber centerfire rounds for varmint hunting/control. Need rifles and ammo. Please let me know what you are willing to let go of. Also, anybody have info on the 17-223 round? Thank you.

204 is a little strong. I am in downtown Mesa dealing with predation. Coyotes have to go so sheep can stay alive! 17 Hornet also sounds fun, and safer.

Thanks! I'll take them. Where are you located?

Hornady supposedly has the dies as well. Thank you for the update. I figure the brass is more readily available in 223 so I want to get it dialed in for yote and other varmints. But I also want to play with the other .17 caliber rounds. Thanks for the info.
