Expanding upon a current post about AR's that shoot sub-moa, a few people reported building their own or having bought guns a few years ago that turned out to be supremely accurate.
My question is...how much of that accuracy is affected by muzzle device choice? I've always been under the impression that a cheap, poorly milled A2 flash hider could cause accuracy problems so I tend to build my AR's with VG6 brakes/comps. But I can't honestly say I've done an accuracy test with different devices on same gun.
How much does a muzzle device affect accuracy?
