The Dead Air RXD675 XRF Rimfire Brake transforms rimfire shooting with advanced recoil reduction and muzzle control specifically engineered for .22 caliber firearms. This precision-machined brake significantly reduces felt recoil and muzzle rise, enabling faster follow-up shots and improved accuracy during rapid-fire sequences.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard compensators that simply redirect gases, the RXD675 features Dead Air's proprietary XRF (eXtreme Rimfire Function) design with strategically positioned ports that maximize gas redirection efficiency. The brake utilizes a multi-chamber system that captures and redirects propellant gases at optimal angles, delivering 40% greater recoil reduction compared to traditional linear compensators. Its compact profile maintains the rifle's balance while providing measurable performance improvements.
Key Features
- M10x1 metric threading for precise fitment on European and select American rimfire barrels
- Heat-treated 4140 steel construction with nitride finish for corrosion resistance
- Six-port configuration with 30-degree upward gas redirection angles
- Overall length of 2.1 inches with 0.87-inch maximum diameter
- Wrench flats machined for easy installation and removal
- Compatible with .22 LR, .22 WMR, and .17 HMR chamberings
- Net weight of 1.8 ounces maintains rifle balance
Range testing demonstrates consistent performance across various ammunition types, from standard velocity .22 LR to high-velocity magnum rounds. The brake excels in competitive shooting applications where split times matter, reducing muzzle jump by approximately 35% compared to bare muzzle configurations. Weather sealing prevents fouling buildup in adverse conditions, while the nitride coating resists corrosion from lead deposits and environmental exposure.
