    Oh don't worry. It's a CZ550 with pretty nice wood.

    Back in the original 338 Ultra testing, our test gun was a Savage .338LM with a red dot on it. In such a short barrel, the recoil shooting offhand was not bad and we commented that it wouldn't be a bad relatively short range "whomping" rifle. In other worse, the recoil was OK. Now with the...

    This was legal advice from a top NFA law firm. Not going to elaborate beyond that.

    Yes, but if you are redoing it, do 7/8-24 not any of the 14 tpi pitches. You have to give a 14 tpi brake a lot more torque to get the same pressing force on the shoulder.

    If you are or ever thought about being a .50BMG shooter, this can will actually cost you a LOT more in the long run because you will actually want to shoot up a lot more .50 ammo. No muffs over the best plugs you can get, and still having it feel like you're being punched in the face with...

    Before your edit I drew this diagram, so I'm still gonna post it, LOL. Top is a HUB can with a DT/HUB adapter. Bottom is a CB. Bottom setup takes up more space inside. Top setup has a longer effective length. For Summit testing, we recorded the length "as tested". In your case we would...

    The 375CT is a no go. We should have answers on the XC’s later this week.

    1180 (Ultra 7) / ( 1600 (Sig cross) + 1900 (3.6-18 Mark5HD) ) = 0.34 5495 / ( 14800 (AXELR) + 4200 (ZC527) ) = 0.29 It's actually cheaper, percentage wise... :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

    Maybe next time we're out we can test them back to back to see if that changes anything. ETA-- Actually, thinking about it, the tested length of H-S was 7.47", which included a DT to HUB adapter. This would use up almost no internal volume forward of the rear of the can, compared to the M-S...

    Looking at the summit data vs. this data, the Hydrogen S, they are within 1 dBA at SE and have the same Leq(10ms) dBA at SE. The H-S at the summit was 7.47" long as tested, not sure what that was, that was how it was handed to the test queue.

    We tested it from the shooter's POV on a bunch of cartridges with upward ports and the muzzle movement was too inconsistent cartridge to cartridge, so we went for max gross recoil reduction. (Directional ports reduced gross reduction.)

    No, it would change the registered length.

    That's technically true (for ML mic at least) but it doesn't tell the whole story. Sometimes the brakes actually throw the sound to the rear more vs. the side mics. Here is the full sound data: https://thunderbeastarms.com/sound/tbac/#RESULTS-UNIFIED You can look at Impulse or Leq for...

    The only can we are obsoleting presently is the Dominus-CB, replaced by the Magnus-S. The Dominus SR's are staying. The Magnus-S is 0.65" longer than the Dominus, and the K is the same longer in the Magnus. The Magnus versions are therefore a little quieter than the Dominus of "similar"...
