    I would say yes my 16 inch 308 was same, s/s baffle is the go with short barrels. They are pretty hard on suppressors being that short there is a lot more heat an pressure I think

    That's pretty bad. I had a stainless baffle on my 7mm08 and it was spotless after a couple of hundred rounds. The aluminium baffle on my 300BLK is also perfect after a similar number of shots, but obviously, it has a much lower muzzle energy.

    Yeah my 17" 223 corroded the first baffle on the initial trip to range. But has settled down with not noticeable wear since then.

    One of the great things with DPT is that you can actually monitor what is happening. God knows what is going on in a sealed surpressor.

    Yip you could even do baffle rotations to share the wear if you are onto it enough
