I have no experience with flash hiders, so please don't think these are silly questions . . . I'm not particularly interested in one, but I do want a muzzle brake for my .223 Saiga, and I see some brake/flash hider combinations.
Who is the flash being hidden from? The shooter, or the target? I can see logical arguments for both.
I have seen statements indicating that some flash hiders have undesired effects on the bullet. How does that happen, and are some types worse than others?
Is there a best/worst choice for my rifle if I chose a combination muzzle brake/flash hider?
