    Uber light Suppressors

    Any one had any experience with the Roedale Delta IV or A-tec CMM-4 suppressors, they look superb for ultra weight savings.

    Yes, Roedale, as good as any NZ can I've shot it next to for suppression, better than some, half the size, very light, replaceable baffles means maintenance is easy.

    Well engineered then.

    Is there a case capacity limit? i.e. suitable for 60 grains or less?

    Yes, you can add baffles for larger cases though. Which obviously increases the weight.

    Adding baffles wont decrease pressure in the first chamber(if your worried about blowing it up) tho just make it quieter. The only way to decrease pressure in the first chamber(for short barreled magnums ect) would be to increase that chamber volume or limit the gas entering that chamber.

    I was talking more about making it quieter with the bigger cases. Changing the first 1-2 baffles to steel is probably a good idea with a magnum calibre?? I would have to check with the manufacturer. I don't own anything using more than 42gr of powder at the moment

    In theory no chambering should be more than 65 000 PSI right? Magnum or not. 270 is run at this now days...
    Roedale has a very informative website too...
    Roedale
    Main page

    You can see they have a R&D section there as well as FAQ's.

    Gimp's wee Delta 4 is better at suppressing noise than my standard Gunworks for less than half the size and weight. I am shooting 46gr of 2209 through my 6.5, whereas he is shooting 42gr through his 6.5...

    Yep but muzzle pressure and gas volume is a different story.

    The problem with suppressors and pressure as I understand it is the shorter the barrel the more pressure at the muzzle
    Having a chamber pressure of 65,000 doesn't mean that will be the pressure at the muzzle and they are all the same. It's quite far from it.
    So a suppressor on a very short barrel is subjected to more pressure the the same load on a longer barrel
