I have a 45 caliber Paramont. Could not find a 45 caliber muzzle break so I used a 50 Cal muzzle brake and it works great. Just got it out and shot it this week.I see where long range customs no longer have breaks available for the paramount.
Anyone know of good workable alternative? Thanks
Not in my opinion. The skirt on the rear of the bullet is flared to provide the seal. The flare going through the brake makes contact.I should have stated paramount pro in the name of the thread.
If using the cva elr's and knowing some of the problems with them, could a guy super glue the plastic base on to the bullet so it didn't come off in the brake? Would this work maybe?

The ELR seems to be the issue when using a brake. If no brake is used it works well.Wow, easy to see what happened there.
I have a 45cal bullet sizer die to get the perfect bullet barrel fit and figure on getting a non sabboted bullet to work like a arrowhead bullet maybe. With that said i would also like to be able to use an elr bullet if i wanted to without worrying about a problem.
Should i take the 45cal to a gunsmith to have bored to 50cal??
I think many run a .500" ID on 45cals and .560" on 50's.Just to clarify, i was talking about turning the 45cal brake into a 50 cal brake just to keep my options as open as possible for any bullets i wish to use. I already have the 45cal brake new in the plastic.
