    So whats the best way to loosen the baffles too tight to undo by hand?

    I think I would rather just stuff the first one good and proper and replace it than have a can full of half cooked baffles

    You'll need to add ".pdf" to the downloaded file name to make it work in Windows.

    If you click open rather than save it should open right up.

    Opened perfectly for me in Win 10 just had to tell it to open using Adobe or you can rename the download file to have a .pdf extension.

    They are a great product and well priced but not as trouble free as a stainless muffler. I never clean mine, i just squirt some INOX in from both ends every now and then or after a wet trip. This should keep it going for the expected life span of the suppressor.

    I've read all of the comments, and i think my approach is best. I just don't look. I'm sure I will know when its buggered.
    I use one on a 20" barrel .243 with one less baffle and full power hand loads. Gong fine after a few hundred shots. Great product.
    You guys worry too much

    Just had a look in my .223 can.. Nothing major I guess. But I'll get the stainless blast baffle at some stage.

    When you say "Full power" what are you running?

    One baffle off doesn't seem to make much difference to the noise. At my end, anyway.
