    Default Suppressor

    I have several suppressors currently but will be adding a few more shortly. I don't know much about suppressors other than they work (both noise and recoil reduction) and I will eventually have one on every rifle I own. When I bought the ones I have now, I just ordered what my supplier recommended. What brand and model should I be looking at for a higher end product? These will be used on 7mm-08's and 280 AI.

    Steelin will know far more, but the SilencerCo Omega 300’s I have are great
    Them that don't know him won't like him, and them that do sometimes won't know how to take him

    I don’t know much about them, but for minimal price difference I regret buying anything besides titanium. The weight difference is substantial, might be a tad louder or quieter I have no idea but it’s about 10oz less if I remember correctly.

    As far as centerfire, large rifle calibers, I can state that my SilencerCo 36M is pretty badass.

    I use it on a 6.5PRC & 7mm Mag. I don't need earpro when using it.

    I picked up my Omega 300 yesterday (free BOGO deal) but have not used it yet. The 300 has slightly worse numbers than the 36M, but only by about 1dB.

    The 46M is nice & I may snag one of those next, as I have over a dozen long guns fitted with ASR QD muzzle devices.

    Another idea is to keep it local and get another Innovative Arms can. I've got a Slingshot & a multi-cal can with 5 different pistons. Phillip does good work and is always helpful when I call.

    Both the 36M & 46M are modular. I have the 36M sitting in short configuration right now, with a 3-lug mount, on my HK. It's still pretty damn quiet when short; I've not tried the short configuration on a rifle yet.

    Gratuitous pic of the Omega 300:

    Oh, and Can-Con is coming up.

    If you wanna try before you buy, this would be an awesome opportunity.

    I'm hoping to make it at least one day.

    I have silencerco omega 300 and harvesters..... Both are great!
    I have family that shoot competitively and apparently there are a lot of good cans available today.

    I just put an omega 300 on a 7-08 and am pretty happy with it. Have Surefires on all of my AR’s.

    I just got a silencerco scythe TI and I love it. I have a couple other cans but this one is my favorite. The weight difference is a game changer on a longer barrel.

    I do a lot of coyote hunting at night so whenever I started researching suppressors my main two concerns were noise reduction and accuracy. I ended up going with the DDC Enticer L and I am more than pleased with it. So far I have used it on a 6mm ARC and 6.5 CM and it has surpassed my expectations especially in noise reduction. My next one will probably be their 8.6.

    I've got an Omega I swap around on several guns but I've been looking at the Scythe TI to put on my Christensen MPR. It is designed to be a lightweight rifle but the monster scope and Omega make it substantially heavier. The price difference between the Omega and Scythe is keeping me from biting. On their website, the Scythe is $1174 and the Omega 30 is $699. I could buy two Omegas plus tax stamps for $1800 or one Scythe plus stamp for $1374. So for the price of a Scythe, I could pay $426 more and have two new cans. I'll probably still get the Scythe but I'll whine about it.

    If I buy it before November, it will help insure that Trump will win, R's will win both houses, suppressors will come off the NFA list and be available in convenience stores with a drastic price drop.

    Lots of good suppressors listed so far

    Another company to look at is Thunderbeast.

    That’s what I’ve read, but what situation/firearm is it ‘best’ for?
