[QUOTE="surgeon260, post: 1751879, member: 103874"] Normally I don't engage anonymous tough guys on the internet, but it's a slow Monday morning so I will bite. First of all, your statement that TBAC is for full auto. That is just ignorant and flat out wrong. TBAC cans are good for a lot of things but full auto is not one of them. TBAC cans are designed from the ground up for precision rifle applications. They are made from 6-4 Titanium which has a great strength/weight ratio but is far from ideal for the heat generated by full auto. If you want full auto capability, buy a stainless steel can. Second, you seem to be implying that direct thread is desirable for "maximum accuracy." Again that is also demonstrably false. The CB TOMB system provides a conical mating surface which locks up tighter and more precisely than direct thread. TBAC isn't alone in using a conical mating surface (Q also uses them, for example), but the advantages are well documented. So your justification for the superiority of the Banish 30 over the TBAC Ultra 7 is 0.7oz? Never mind the fact that the TBAC has a fully welded baffle core which allows it to run higher pressure cartridges, including any 30 cal super mag out there (300 RUM, 300 Norma, 300 Lapua). The Banish 30 is only rated to 300 Weatherby if I recall correctly. Then there is the whole caliber-specific endcap nonsense. Banish claims a significant dB drop by using a smaller endcap for smaller calibers, despite the fact that the entirety of the baffle stack is still 308 cal. This is straight up marketing BS that has been disproven by Mil-Std-1474D-compliant testing. The Banish is only available in 5/8-24 threads. What if I want larger diameter threads, or a metric thread pattern for a Sako TRG? Out of luck. I don't mean to be hating on the Banish. The Mack brothers are high integrity and they make great stuff. Their cans have a lot of cool features. I do however take exception to your combination of arrogance and ignorance. [/QUOTE]
