i heard it would drop it a bit, but holy shit.. just finished up the 338 LM can for my dad. test fired it tonight. with clipped cones very little to no POI shift. recoils like a .243 now, its crazy on how much it calmed it down. Funny part is I paid for the materials (inconel,Ti and 17-4), the form 1 and listened to him bitch about it teh whole way. I dont need that, I dont want that. BLAH Blah blah..

After he shot it tonight, changed his mind completely. Oh thats staying on that gun.. no no dont take it off. Ill take it this week when we go over for deer..

Normally how it goes.


My dad questioned the fuck out of why I wanted suppressors. "Guns are fun loud"    He, himself, owning a MG and a Short barrels shotgun.  



Man did he love shooting the shit out of my SiCo Sparrow. Even picked himself up a SiCo Omega 9k.

It truly is impressive. I shot a fellow Arfcommers .338 LM that was suppressed and it was incredibly tame.

ya it was actually FUN to shoot.. it was nice, since this was the first time he shot it with out the lead sled. hes been worried about using it this year, thinking too much recoil. Built both the rifle and suppressor for the old man.. I just hope my kids do something like that for me when i get old..

2 ways.  Added mass from the suppressor and preventing the gasses from rushing out with the bullet.

I have a Salvo 12 and it takes a pump action 12 gauge shotgun from... Well... A shotgun and turns it into about a 20 gauge.

Putting it on the Versamax is a no brainier. I really want a shorter barrel for the Versamax, then it would be pimptacular.

I've never done a back to back with the same rifle, but I've never thought that a suppressed rifle was much more tame with a suppressor. Most rifles I've shot with suppressors have been heavy or .556 though.

I notice little or no recoil reduction with a 5.56 (which doesn't really have any recoil to reduce anyway). I notice a huge reduction with a .308, maybe 50%.

The muzzlebrake on a 50 is very effective, throwing a can on removes that mitigation.

I just shipped my Sparrow back today.

Just put it on a 10/22 last week and was done after 16rnds.   Didn't seem to quiet the report at all and the point of impact changed about 18" low and 4"left at only 25yds and no amount of sight adjustment makes any improvement. Firing with the suppressor removed returns the point of impact to point of aim.
The threads on the suppressor and the barrel look true and the bullets are not striking the baffles or endcap.

Right....but here's an unscientific answer I think might get the point across a few of us are wondering
The 50 Cal bullet is ~15 times heavier and is traveling quite a bit faster than a 9mm. The 50 Cal can would need to be QUITE a bit bigger to achieve the same gas/volume as the 9mm can.



 





632 J = 9mm for muzzle energy


15037 = 50 BMG for muzzle energy





The gas coming out would therefore have to have that much energy, right?



The 50 can doesn't have 30 times the volume of the 9 can.

.338 LM and deer are an interesting combination.  Are the deer hardier up there or is dad taking 1300 yard shots?

The good news is if he's taking closer shots the deer will be easy to find.

A lot of people don't realize it because they don't adjust the gas on their AR after installing a can.

My 11.5" SBR had worse recoil after installing a can. Installed an adjustable gas block and it has been great.

Yeah Ive never noticed a reduction in recoil using a can either.

It makes it quieter which may seem like it reduces recoil. Then again Im only using cans on pistol and 5.56mm cartridges.

With the cyclic speed increase I almost think it increases recoil, but the weight of the can on the end of the gun kind of neutralizes that.

Im no scientist

Recoil increases...a LOT

Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile


I wouldn't say a lot but it does increase it a bit.

I will take that all day long over the blast. I won't shoot 50s w/o a can unless there is no brake (i.e. M2)


Sinus clearing concussion is the best part of shooting a 50. Lots of fun with the tank brake on my CQ

I just shipped my Sparrow back today.

Just put it on a 10/22 last week and was done after 16rnds.   Didn't seem to quiet the report at all and the point of impact changed about 18" low and 4"left at only 25yds and no amount of sight adjustment makes any improvement. Firing with the suppressor removed returns the point of impact to point of aim.
The threads on the suppressor and the barrel look true and the bullets are not striking the baffles or endcap.

Normally how it goes.


My dad questioned the fuck out of why I wanted suppressors. "Guns are fun loud"    He, himself, owning a MG and a Short barrels shotgun.  



Man did he love shooting the shit out of my SiCo Sparrow. Even picked himself up a SiCo Omega 9k.

You need to shoot subsonic ammo, and get a barrel with unfucked threads.
