[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 1300427, member: 1290"] Right at the muzzle pressure is minimal. The brake will reinforce the barrel much like the action does on the chamber end. If the brake is over tightened it can put a choke in the barrel. 9/16th will be fine. I know a big shop that builds ultra light rifles who routinely puts 7/16th threads on a 300 RUM. That is about half as thick as a 9/16th on a 338. [/QUOTE]
