Suppressors TBAC Magnus vs Dead Air Nomad LT Signature Suppression

[overmatch]

Curious if anyone has experience running either of these two cans under nods. Looking to see which one handles (6.5CM specifically) muzzle flash better. Will be running barrels on the shorter end (18" 6.5CM and 16" 308). Any datapoints are useful, thanks.

We shot the Magnus in complete dark with a long exposure (no I2) and I don't even know if we got anything to show up. Let me see if I can dig up the photo next week.

Great to know, thanks.

We had two photos on file shooting 300 PRC through the Magnus. 26" barrel if I remember correctly. One of them had zero signature visible (ie no spark / no flash) even when I cranked up the exposure using the raw image tool. Here is the second, I cranked up the exposure +3.5 and you can see one Ti spark and no flash. Flash is very much ammo and barrel length dependent. Ammo was Hornady 225gr ELDM.

To scale, the length of the spark is about 3-5 inches in that exposure.

The noise in the photo is due to long exposure, high ISO, and increasing the exposure using the raw image tool and should give an idea how dim this is to start with

Thanks, Zak. Given your solid reputation, I took your first post reply at face value, but appreciate the validation with proof!
