    TBAC flash hider vs muzzle brake

    Yeah I wouldn’t say I don’t care about my hearing. That’s the reason why I’m getting a suppressor in the first place. I just may need to rarely shoot without suppressor or earpro.

    TBAC flash hider vs muzzle brake

    Meh… the government’s cost me a lot of my hearing already between MG’s, demolitions, and jet engines. A few shots a year on animals isn’t gonna cost that much more

    TBAC flash hider vs muzzle brake

    I definitely wouldn’t be concerned with the noise aspect when an elk comes out and have no issues shooting without earpro with crowned muzzles and flash hiders. I do that all the time. I only have a couple muzzle brakes on target rifles and I think that it would be pretty brutal without earpro...

    TBAC flash hider vs muzzle brake

    I’m looking for some guidance on TBAC’s CB suppressor mounting system. I just bought an Ultra 7 CB suppressor (waiting on form 4). I have the included muzzle brake in hand and I can mount it on my rifle. I am going on an elk hunt next month and will be using this rifle. As such, I’m hesitant to...

    Suppressors Help me pick a .30 cal suppressor

    Oh wow, the atf website says 100 days estimate for eform. It doesn’t surprise me at all that it’s way longer than that. My first suppressor was 11 months (paper form).

    Suppressors Help me pick a .30 cal suppressor

    To provide everyone with an update: I listed to the majority here and picked up a TBAC Ultra 7 .30 cal. I just left the gun shop and submitted my eform. Can’t wait to get it! If I’m lucky I might have it in time for Christmas!

    Fieldcraft Tradecraft Vs. Fieldcraft

    I’m currently going through this right now. I’m going on an elk hunt next month with my dad and brother. I’m an active duty Marine so Fieldcraft has been ingrained into me for years. I consider myself very proficient. My dad and brother not so much. I’ve taught them and had professional training...

    Cheap amazon headspace gauges: ZPV?

    Wow good to know. I'm glad I listened to others in this thread and bought a forester go gauge. I used a snip of an aluminum can and stuck it to the back to get a go gauge. It was exactly .004 longer than the go gauge and worked well.

    Suppressors Help me pick a .30 cal suppressor

    So after doing a lot of reading, I think the dead air nomad probably checks most of my boxes. It’s a hub system so mounting options are limitless, it’s fairly lightweight (especially the Ti version), and it’s reasonably priced. I really like the TBAC products but the only hub system seems to...

    Larue Siete available to order

    I wouldn’t call myself a fanboy or a hater. I have two larue rifles; an older OBR 5.56 and an ultimate upper 6.5G. I enjoy both and they are excellent shooters. I got a screaming deal on the OBR but would never pay their asking price for one. I also have a couple LT104 mounts. For me, this...

    Larue Siete available to order

    I was thinking the same. I thought it was weird to see .243. Why would they not make a 6mm creed barrel? That way you’d have a 6.5/6 creed instead of 6.5/243

    Larue Siete available to order

    It looks like a nice value. Two barrels with a quick change system for $2900. I’ve been reading about this thing for years, was surprised to see it finally released. https://www.larue.com/products/larue-siete/

    Suppressors Help me pick a .30 cal suppressor

    Yeah I hear you, but I know myself too well. When I'm hunting, ear pro is the last thing I think of. I also hunt a lot of different situations from close in to long range. I made the mistake of firing a braked 18" M1A sneaking up on game once and swore to myself that I'd never hunt with another...

    Suppressors Help me pick a .30 cal suppressor

    Thanks for all the replies. It seems like the SiCo Omega 300, rugged radiant, or TBAC dominus are the front runners. The advantage of the SiCo is that my dealer stocks them and can give it to me at cost. The radiant he can special order and give some discount. The TBAC I think I would have to...

    Suppressors Help me pick a .30 cal suppressor

    Do you have experience with the Rugged M2 brake? One concern I didn't mention is that I am not always going to hunt with the suppressor in states that don't allow it. I don't want to blow my eardrums with a normal brake. I'm wondering if the M2 brake is as loud as a normal brake when unsuppressed?
