I shot an AR two weekends ago with a Bennie Cooley and it was phenomenall! This was the first brake I have ever used. Anyway, ARP claims that their 12 port outperforms the BC in muzzle rise and flash reduction as well. I ordered the ARP for my multi gun rifle as it looks to be a really good brake for the $$$. Anyone running a 12 port on here?

If you enjoyed it, why not buy that instead of an untested comp?

Sorry, I should have been a little more clear in my opening post! I will edit it. Anyway, when I shot with the BC brake, it was the first time I have ever used a brake. I was floored that a rifle could be tamed down like that. ARP was actually recommended by my rimfire barrel smith. They claim on the ARP site that their 12 port brake has better muzzle rise reduction and flash reduction than the BC. I think it'll be worth a try.

Was the FSC noiser to the shooter?

the FSC was very noisy with a lot of muzzle blast, not so from the ARP
I found a video of a greenhorn shooting one of my arp uppers with an ARP 12 port brake, keep in mind he is shooting hot 6.8 loads

Thanks for the link! That brake should be perfect! I can't wait to get that bad boy in and put on!
