I have a Rem 700 BDL SS DM-B in .338 Win Mag. The factory muzzle brake works well for reducing recoil but it's too loud to shoot without hearing protection even for one shot while hunting. I've decided that I'd rather have the higher recoil than to try flip on protection before a shot in the field.
Does anyone know if these factory brakes from Remington are threaded and therefore removable?

Thanks
