Thread: Centrefire suppressor... monocore or cone???

Hi chaps

I am gearing up to build a suppressor for my new Howa 7mm-08

I have previously built a couple of rimfire monocores and found them very effective.

After a bit of reading I am stuck at a couple of points and would appreciate any input particularly if you "have been there done that"

Over barrel or muzzle-mount?

Monocore innards or 60 degree cones/spacers?

WHich is likely to be the most effective?

I have read that K baffles dont do so well in centrefire.

With the machinery I have access to I can build monocores or do the simple cone baffle with spacers.

Thanks in advance

Tracy

Thanks for the suggestion Mauser

I will go overbarrel isolated and 60deg cones with a delrin bushing at the rear for alignment.

What wall thickness should I go for with the aluminium cover tube?

cheers
