Suppressor Experience?

[SquirrelShooter]

Wanting a Flow 762Ti for Ruger Am. 6.5PRC. Pew shows some really good numbers for .308 Supersonic, and the thing is one of the lightest out there.

Anyone with experience? Advice? Alternatives?

HuxWrx makes some nice cans. The Flows are nice but they don't have a hub mount so you are stuck with their mount set up for them. I have one of the newer Flow Range 36 and it's nice and light but I can use different mounts with the hub.

Will you be using it with an AR also? If not then the flow through isn't really needed. Take a look at the Dead Air Nomad Ti XC also. Again nice and light and a hub set up. Where you buying it from?

My local shop goes through Silencer Shop. I prefer a DT; and yes, I would like flexibility with an AR (have Meateater on it now).

Is there a DT option for the Flow762? Take a look at the Flow Range 36 I have. Works great on an AR or bolt gun and can also be used on a 9mm PCC or pistol. Lots of versatility.

Silencer Shop is great with their kiosks. Makes buying a can so easy and fast not. I got three of them from them this year. lol

Haha! I swore I wouldn't buy one for several years, and then broke down. Have bought 3 myself in 4 mos.! Strange thing, ATF IS NOT the broken cog in the wheel: the longest they have taken is 2½ days for my stuff (no trust obviously).

I dbl check for DT. Thanks for suggestion on range!

Doesn't those say a DT is available?

When it says "comes with hub," do i have to have something to accept the hub?

That the Flow Range 36? It comes with their attachment that I sold for like $150 and used a Xeno mount like my others for my ARs but you can buy a hub DT attachment and screw it right on. I got some for my other can from Joe Bobs for like $40 each.

Yes it is the Flow Range; BTW, That looks more up my alley... great recommendation!

So, any DT 1¾" x 24 pitch attachment will work?

Is the Xeno mount like a flash suppressor with male threads for the can?

Yup any mount that says Hub compatible will work with the 36.

Yeah the Xeno uses a brake attached to the rifle and the male threads on the outside. It's also left hand tighten and right to loosen. I use a DT on my bolt guns though.

I got my Xeno brakes from EuroOptics.

I would go with a baffled can for a bolt gun, it will be quieter than a flow through can. The Flow would be good for a gas gun though

 

[Tank608]

@patrickjr is 100% correct. Flow through cans are louder than a baffled can. Flow cans were developed to bring less gas to the shooters face. They achieve this but at the cost of a louder can. Doesn't make too much sense in a bolt gun.

If your looking for a Ti can that's great for hunting, look at Diligent Defense.

He already said he also wants it for his ARs.

And when shooting supersonic ammo you won't hear the difference. Meters may pick it up but not a shooter with ears on.

If he wants it for his ARs totally fine but you are incorrect on your statement. You will most certainly hear a difference with shooting supersonic ammo. We shoot thousands of rounds every year with both flow and traditional baffled cans and can most certainly tell a difference.

If you can hear the difference then great but I also have both and with my ears on they sound the same to me when I shoot them in matches.
