Quote History$1600 + $260 for additional muzzle brake mounts. Damn, theyre proud of that piece of kit 
Looks like quality however. Not familiar with the brand. More research is definetly needed. Would be used on short barrel .375 Raptor. |

But they’re more situated on the precision rifle side of things. I’ve never shot either the Elite Iron or Crux. If you’re open to a bigger bore the Hybrid would probably not be a bad choice. Not a lot of dudes suppressing .375- so your options are going to be really limited. |

I would vote for the hybrid due to price. I picked one up for $620 on gunbroker. After s&h, transfer, and stamp I have $875 in it not including accessories like asr, mounts, and end caps. I’m a cheaper kinda guy than most on here. I just try to avoid top of the line $$$ and cheap stuff that I will probably regret.

Just call any company that already makes them in .338wm and ask them to send you one in .375
Unless there is a significant difference in the gas volume and pressure they can put one together at the factory and ship to your dealer. Or.. buy a quality one in .338wm, apply for a second stamp and bore it out to .375. Remark can in .375. Or.. have a custom one made. |

Wouldn't they then be required to do one-off custom engraving for caliber, new registration forms, etc? This isn't for a precision rifle, get a SiCO hybrid and rock on. Ymmv |

@tbacray
@zak-smith Would you make 375 can? If we got a dealer to order a certain number would that get it done? Kind of want a 375 Lapua AI. |

Big-bore cans (.375, .408, .416, .50 etc) ARE on our "top 5 todo list" Long answer, it's the "certain number" that's the tricky part. The market for .375 and up suppressors is pretty small. It's not as easy as just changing the aperture size in the CNC programs. To get something that works as well as the 338 Ultra does on .338, for .375's, etc, will require some R&D and then to ensure it has the strength and service life we want, a lot of live-fire testing (even after all the computer modeling). This is where it gets really expensive, and the "expected orders" becomes important. |

Zak, understood. If you bring a .375 can in under $2000 I’ll buy one of the first. Even if I have to eat ramen.

An "Ultra series" .375 Cheytac suppressor is almost certainly not going to be under $2000. The extra raw materials alone will probably push it over that, vs. the 338 Ultra.

More ramen for me! With the current state of the 30 caliber magnums I sold my 338. If I’m going over thirty I’m going to 375.

12 calls over 3 months and not a single call back and zero contact with anyone at Crux? Damn, are you just going to let it ride and hope it miraculously just reappears one day fixed? He promises the owner, Curtis, will call me back. Nada. Thank goodness I have other cans. I'm hoping at some point they get tired of me calling and get my can fixed. (big chunk of the blast baffle has been broken off, no strikes or tube damage, I just need a new core) I'm open to ideas. I got the can cheap so sending it to someone else to repair isn't worth it. |

Ymmv I do not see a need for any super duper custom engraving. I see hand punches or a powered hand engraving tool and one on the ball guy in the shop taking care of It in less than 15 minutes. The only change from the factory is the calliber...the other information does not change. Looking for fancy BS engraving or get the suppressor done ? If they charge more than $250 then I would just do it myself. Or just buy the hybrid or other? Just my .02 The only real consideration i can see is if a .338 can as is normally constructed has enough volume and strength to handle .375. My off the cuff guess is that for a bolt gun it would be fine. I could be wrong and it requires a bit larger tube to be effective or the blast baffle should be in a different location..? |

It's not so much the cost of making the one-off suppressor (let alone engraving, which is trivial); it's the cost of the series of prototypes you built and tested to make sure "that one" suppresses the intended cartridges very well and will last a long time, not blow its guts out after 100 rounds or have a tube that splits after 5000 rounds.
