If you reload hard and do not mind a wider silhouette, this is the one. The flare is aggressive enough that the magazine effectively finds its own way in.
It fits straight onto the receiver, with no modification needed to the lower.
The trade-off is bulk. A big flare sits proud of the receiver, so it will catch on a tight sling or a narrow bag more readily than a slim one.

Good to know before you buy
Order against your receiver profile. There is one version per HYP cut and they do not cross over.
Expect faint contact marks inside the rails; every unit is trial-fitted to a receiver before despatch.
Measure your bag and your rig before you commit to the flare. This is the bulkier of the two magwell shapes.
Frequently asked questions
How big is the difference against the low-profile version?
Noticeably bigger. The HRF flares out much further; the low profile stays close to the receiver.
Which receiver cut do I choose?
HYP-9, HYP-556 Style 1 or HYP-556 Style 2 — whichever your lower is.
Is it going to catch on gear?
It can. A big flare is the cost of a big funnel; if you run a tight setup the low-profile version is the safer pick.
Does it affect how the gun feeds?
No. It only changes how easily a magazine finds the well.
