I'm putting together a 30 Nosler that will have a 26" proof barrel. Despite the added length I'm going to run it suppressed. I have a TBAC Ultra 7 and a Surefire SOCOM 762rc -- either would be attached over the respective CB/QD brake. Any recs on which would be better?
 
With today's suppressors, it's not really about decibels anymore. If there were a line-up of all the most popular suppressors, there would be little-to-no difference at all in what you hear. With that said, I believe it mainly comes down to feature set and reliability. I can say that there has been quite a few issues with the Surefire QD brakes in the past (mine included). When shooting with only the brake, the precision goes out the window. However, when shooting with the can on, it's right back where you need it. I'm not sure if you have tested yours out before or not? I do love my brake, though.

I would simply pick whichever one you like better and know is reliable.
 
Omega. King of .30 cal cans I've used. Very versatile, light, quiet. Not to mention silencercos customer service is the best of any company I have ever dealt with. Tbac cans are also nice and I own one but I would take the omega if I could only have one. I have a 28 nosler and I like to carry the gun hunting without the can. Makes it shorter and lighter. The omega is very fast to put on the gun. Poi shift is minimal. Forget the surefire.
