Trev, thats what is on the 6SLR and will suit the 260AI as well.

That is pretty much what my 6SLR has as well.
Seems we are all a bit soft

They might not look as customs as some of the other brakes but these work well

I might even have some laying around. I have one on my 308 pump that i have to take off due to my ear issues and i think there is a 223 one somewhere too

Good looking brake, nice sized ports, but personally isnt what I call a "compensator".

The hybrids interest me as they are both a brake - recoil reduction and a compensator - control of vertical rise of the muzzle "flip". Via the row of holes/slits/cut outs in the top of the device.

At the end of the day though - Jerry Miculek knows his stuff, and I highly doubt he would let his name be associated with a poor product.
