Suppressor Recommendations

On another thread about suppressors, someone mentioned the AB Raptor suppressor. I went to the AB website and did some research. The reflex mount is an interesting method to add suppressor volume without adding length. Is anyone running one of these? Do other manufacturers have anything similar?
 
Sounds like you are already leaning away from the Scythe Ti, but for what it’s worth I love mine.

I have about 300 rounds through a 20” 30-06. Dunked it in a river at one point and got soot plugging it up completely. Called SilencerCo and they walked me through cleaning it. Still working perfectly. Put it on a 16” AR-15, put 200 rounds though that, still working perfectly.

Unfortunately until SilencerCo lets us know how many they have sold in total, how many have had issues, and if any changes have been made in response to failures, the reports on the forum-that-cannot-be-named inherently suffer from participation bias that inflates the apparent frequency of issues. It might be the #1 selling can in its class with 99.9% reliability for all we know.
 
KGM - R30k. Best Ti suppressor. I also have a scythe and I prefer the KGM.
 
I have had issues with uber light Ti cans opening up grouping of rifles. “Heavier” steel cans almost always shrinks groups in my personal experience.

And I’m talking opening up big time.

And the Scythe most certainly has structural issues… where there is smoke there is fire. Even though some don’t seem to agree because “mine hasn’t exploded” lol

I own one and have hundreds of rounds through it. Two thumbs up from me. Anyone have a link describing what the failures have been in detail?
 
I just picked up my first suppressor, an AB A10 7.62. I've only put a box or so through it so far but I really like it. It makes American Eagle 5.56 sound like a high velocity .22lr. And its pretty cheap as silencers go, about $500.

You could also just google it your self and do some research. Plenty out there

Interesting, I haven’t experienced this with any of my TBAC cans on multiple different barrel profiles.

I Belive that! Those have been an exception to that rule, again from what I have seen.

Me and my friends have had nothing but issues with other super light cans.

Sending NF scopes back because they “wondered” :ROFLMAO:

Should have checked the suppressor first lol. Why it’s always good to test the rifle system before introducing a suppressor. Helps you understand the variables a little more clearly haha.

Hi Marcus

What sling studs do those swivels fit ? They look to be quite a bit wider than the standard modern swivels. They may be just what I need for my Remington 30 Express wide swivel studs. Can you measure the pin diameter ?

Do you know where your .240 Weatherby was manufactured?
