Thread: Rimfire through a centerfire suppressor

We do not recommend using .22LR in centrefire calibre suppressors.

As rimfire ammunition can be quite dirty and can produce a lot of fouling inside the suppressor.

And the most extreme case is one old BR Reflex suppressor coming back to us, that had most likely exploded due to the amount of unburned powder in it from massive rimfire firing.

We have not seen any other suppressor before or since, that had peeled out like that.

Rimfire suppressors are very economical to buy for those calibres.

Best Regards!
