I had my smith put a muzzle brake on my Ruger mini-30. I have recently bought a Ruger American ranch bolt action in .223 with a threaded barrel. I noticed that my muzzle brake for my mini-30 screws on the American bolt .223.
Would I be able to safely shoot the rifle with that brake on it, and would I receive any benefit from it?
Not able to get a hold of my smith to ask the question.

Should, if the threads are straight and true, If it's off you'll shave bullets on firing,
HOWEVER, without examining the rifle , etc, is it worth your eyes, hand, or rifle?

Yeah, taming 223 recoil is important. Making them ridiculously loud at the range and elsewhere is just a side benefit.

j2dogs,
Insert a cleaning in from the bore with some left out. If it clears the brake all the way around, you are good to go.
