Is there an accepted best design for a monocore F1 suppressor?  

Kinda beyond the capacity of the average DIY guy, but thought Id ask.

If you have the machine(s) to make it,  I'd look towards proven designs.

Not a huge difference so may just want to stick with the "////" or "<<<<"

I think a regular baffle type would be easier, just need a lathe.
I could made a monolithic easy at work with a Wire EDM but still need the lathe for tube, threads. Might be faster if I was doing volume work.
You could do it with a mill instead of a WEDM, but I know that's not how I would process it.

Ive got a Mazak Quickturn, it'd make short work of the baffles.   Maybe I'll jusy copy the ones from my SWR Spectre.

The Liberty Regulator is a strong monocore performer. It is quieter than several of my traditional baffle cans but has slightly more FRP than the top dogs (mask, element 2, TBAC takedown).

Thanks dude!

I see that it has an eccrntric or assymetrical core.  I'm guessing thay is tuned for some form of wave cancelation?

I'm not sure but Liberty is kind of the monocore company. I imagine they have been through a ton of iterations and landed on the design for a reason. The Regulator is a bit on the long side for a rimfire can but still sounds really nice. Reasonably lightweight too. I tested 7 rimfire cans for pistol use all in one setting and it finished just behind the previously mentioned strong performers with regards to FRP. I can take some pictures and maybe rough measurements for you after the New Year if that would help.

Sure!  Best info would be radius on the pockets and how much they're offset from CL.
