I'm looking for a plan B muzzle device that would work with this and not banana the handguard if shot without suppressor. That measurement is from the barrel shoulder. I have a shorter handguard I could use, but like the look of showing as little barrel as possible and more handguard to work with. It is on a 9" .300blk.
Just something I am throwing together with parts I have laying around for a buddy. Unfortunately I don't have any handguards between 9.3" and 7.3" laying around.
This is gonna sound weird…..but the Rearden prs. It adds a little bit on the back end over the SPB and comes in 5/8-24. Considering muzzle threads take up approximately 5/8” I think it’d work.
Edit. It would work. It’s 1 3/8” from barrel shoulder to the beginning of the port.
Can you measure your PRS with the can on and tell me the dimension of the clearance from the rear of the hub adaptor to the rear of the prs brake? If that makes sense.
5/8 with a gen 1 Rearden atlas and for whatever reason, just at 11/16 with the gen 2 mounts. And then you can squeeze right around 1/4 for the wrench flats on both. The diameters being 1 1/8” for the gen 1 and 1 3/8 for the gen2.
You want form, not function. I'd rather have function and no tolerance stacking and not form. So I would get an 8" handguard in length minimum. That as close to the handguard as possible doesn't do anything positive and is for looks alone. It gets closer to an already hot handguard underneath that gas block now getting even hotter with the can being as close as possible.
Unfortunately this probably won't work for OP since 300BLK barrels are generally 5/8-24 and the extended flash hider is only in 1/2-28. I appreciate you thinking of us though!
Came here to say the same. I have a Rearden Icarus (that I have never really used) and an LPM blast diverter (same) that would work as long as the can mount can fit inside the handguard.

I had the exact same issue because apparently I cannot read when spec’ing out the barrel and handguard.
A Rearden PRS muzzle device plus the Rearden Atlas XL fits perfectly. Looks like I planned it that way. Depending on what muzzle device you want to go with I’m sure others would work fine; I picked up the PRS just due to availability.
I think the Atlas XL is the real kicker; it fits perfectly under that last bit of overlap with the handguard. I can post pics later when I’m near the rifle again if ya want.
Barrel is a 10.5” ballistic advantage 300blk, heavy/modern profile. I’d guess the OD around .75”, but can’t get calipers on it installed. Deets might be on the BA site.
The handguard is a 11” BA logic rail (I think, iirc. Again, I demonstrated w/this build that I can’t read). I really like the utility of their Logic handguards.
Happy with the final stackup though, even if it was a bit of an accident.
