Question to the masses. I have searched this forum and have found nothing on point with my question. If I overlooked it well , It happens.

Am building an SBR and will install my Surfire Can which I think is probably the best can available IMHO and I agree with TR that it is one of the most quiet, rugged and depenable cans on the market and I own two other brands.

So my question is this, if using a QD Surefire (or any can for that matter), on an SBR platform, has anyone experienced any excessive wear on the muzzle brake or other QD divice and or the can itself?

I am referring to burn rate of powder. If shooting in a shorter barrel, I have heard and to some degree believe that there is a percentage of powder that is not burned off completely, therefore when using a can/suppressor, the remaining powder is being burned off inside the can or at the QD device thus leading to excessive wear and potential failure. I do not expect much of a problem using the Surefire however I wanted to ask the question.

What do the masses say?
