Anyone have any input on using a Rearden Atlas XL combined with a short flash hider like this:


In a Nomad-LT so that the radial gas expansion will primarily be blocked by the mount itself? Wouldn't this greatly extend the integrity of the titanium long term especially with higher pressure calibers? Additionally the muzzle is shifted rearward even further from the blast baffle.

Understandably the trade off would be added length/weight as compared to a standard atlas, but if the goal was absolute longevity of the suppressor would this be the ideal setup provided you don't use any muzzle brakes?
