| What caliber would everyone recommend for my first suppressor???? |
|
What do you shoot the most? I have the most .22 LR hosts, but if you have a few hosts in the same caliber that you shoot the most.... I'd get that caliber.
I voted 22LR because that is by far the caliber I have the most hosts and suppressors in. Hands down shot the most. |
| I cast my vote for a 30cal. Of course I've got 4 uppers ranging from 6.5, 6.8, and 2 30cals so it made sense. All will get a YHM 762 phantom mount. I'm probably going to build a 556/22conv upper next year and the 30cal can will work well on a 556 so you get my reasoning :) |

I shoot my AR the most but I was thinking the suppressor would get me more excited to shoot my bolt-action .22 more often. |

hmmmm... I wonder if one might get approved faster than the others or all at different times or all together.... would be interesting to find out, so someone do this and share the results. I don't have that kind of $$$

There is an easy answer to this question. Get all 4 at once.  QFT. You can wait 4 months on paperwork 4 different times, or just bite the bullet and have them all processed in parallel.  |
| I got a .30 caliber suppressor for my first suppressor. I figured recoil and flash suppression was more important to me than sound. Besides a novelty, what good is a quiet .22lr? Maybe if I wanted to shoot in my garage or something. A .22 suppressor is in my future but not as my first. |
