Quote History Quoted:
there's a lot of things I would get before that. I watcched a few videos on it and the sound difference is barely noticeable. I'd agree that for $50 it may not be that bad, but not worth $130 thats for sure.
If you watnt quiet, get an adjustable gas block and turn it all the way off so your rifle doesnt cycle. Cheaper and will be as quiet as a a suppressed bolt action.

The JP-SCS isn't about making the rifle quieter overall, it's about making the action noise quieter for the shooter whose face is against the stock. It makes a huge difference in that regard.

So if the only real benefit is a smoother action with a little less felt recoil, I could just slap in a $35 spikes ST-T2 heavy buffer and call it a day?
You could use any buffer you want, but the JP-SCS is on a completely different level than an ST-T2.
I've used carbine, H, H2, H3, ST-T2, 9mm, rifle, and the JP-SCS buffers in both light and heavy flavors. The JP-SCS is unequaled, just expensive. However, your rifle will be the cheapest expense when it comes to shooting. The cost of ammo will dwarf everything else; the difference between a $35 buffer and a $145 buffer will be irrelevant by comparison.
