Thread: Good lightweight suppressors?

So open the popcorn, here we go!
I'm after a good lightweight suppressor for a 6.5prc, proof research carbon barrel, so bit fatter than average.
So it'll need to be custom I guess?
Don't think ODL's over barrel will fit.
Not too worried about the price, like lightweight. Also, sponsored by Seabiscuit and all her lucky taxpayers in the steal back.

I've got an ODL QD that fits, but then you hang that steel muzzle brake off the end off all that nice carbon & titanium.

Who's building the nicest gear out there?

Thanks, no biting, keep it a clean fight. ;-)

Greg maniatis makes a beautiful carbon supressor. And I've had good experiences with him and the supressor.

A Tech, Hardy, DPT.

I know this is a year or two old now, but results are still pretty much the same

Dpt wouldn't do one for a proof barrel. If it's a lite sendero it could work but not the standard. Hardy ones fit .... just! It pays to measure and let them know.

A DPT will only just fit on a 26" Sendero light contour if its shorter it won't fit.

Naturally a muzzle forward will fit, over barrels are the problem.

DPT

Dpt muzzle forward weight is 200gr. It will handle the 6.5prc. Available in 18x1, (and 3/4-24 and 20x1 depending of stock levels).

Interesting will follow this as will be wanting to put a suppressor on my Savage 22.250 later in the year. Funds don't allow until then.

@Mistral

The ODL Brake only weighs 74 grams and your ODL QD Suppressor (if it is the Titanium one) weighs 170 grams. Total weight is 244 grams.

If I am reading that link that @mcche171 put up you would need a 9 baffle DPT to get the noise reduction of a ODL which would make it much heavier I think; and the Maniatis suppressors are much less effective than both (I am going off the overall DB reduction so someone tell me if I am reading that wrong). I would consider just buying an ODL cyclone brake for $199 and using your ODL suppressor..

If you do I would probably check the the 6.5PRC is okay in the QD ODL can - isn't 6.5prc a magnum cartridge?

DPT wont fit anything bigger than 22.5 read below off his website.


Barrel isolator tube will accept barrels no bigger than 22.5mm in diameter.

Yes you need a magnum suppressor

Are 6.5 PRC considered Magnum? I thought they were just magnum performance, and less hard on a barrel / suppressor?
