Zachery, it will work but not be optimum for effectiveness (a 6.5 Muzzle Brake would work best). The purpose of a muzzle brake is to reduce recoil by redirecting the gas that is otherwise propelled forward. If all the gas is going forward, the gun is propelled backward into the shooter. By installing a muzzle brake, we hope to peel off as much gas as possible from the forward gas stream rendering the rearward propulsion less aggressive. Based on this well accepted theory, one would assume that a larger internal diameter of the muzzle brake would allow more gas through as the projectile is passing through it, rendering the muzzle brake less effective. ------ https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/723006478/bergara+rifles+st1+muzzle+brake+65mm+caliber%2c+5%2f8x24%22+threads
