I am looking at getting a 223 can for an 11.5 and 16 inch AR as well as a 20 inch Remington SPS tactical bolt gun. I am somewhat leary in the ability of a 223 can to really quiet things down so I am not looking to spend a fortune. The cans I'm looking at and MSRP are below:
Gemtech M402 Piranha $525 YHM Stainless Phantom $510 SWR Wolverine $695 AAC M4-1000 $650 AAC Ranger 2 $550 I would prefer to stay on the cheaper side but can be swayed if given a good argument. Please let me know opinions. TIA |

That's a good idea...I'm gonna have to see what I can drum up in the area or see what the local class 3 guy can demo for me.
Quoted:
try to find people in your HTF that have the gear you're thinking of buying and ask to try it out. I have a Gemtech G5 and like it a lot; the repeatability of alignment is great. |

I chose the M4-02 due to it being the smallest and lightest available in its class, and the fact that I don't need to ever take it off my rifle. It's a 1.37'' diameter can, the next smallest is 1.5''. There are several in the same 16 oz class.
The M4-02 also has symmetric baffles which (apparently) improve accuracy at a small cost to decibel reduction. All I can say is that I enjoy shooting without hearing protection and clanging an 8 inch gong off-hand at 100 yards at rapid fire with relative ease. These things were not accomplished before the can. |
