    Lightweight Suppressor Comparison and Poll

    From what I've read, the ultra 5 is a waste of time (and hearing). I love my 18" 22 creed with the gen 2 ultra 7 (6.5 flavor), very quiet even with my hot 3559 fps rounds. That's with 70 grain monos. But if the scythe-Ti is as quiet, I'll be upgrading

    So, how light can a Kimber Hunter be? A build thread.

    Another thing, the helical fluting makes the barrel very grippy to pick up after being leaned against something. And, accuracy didn't change, even with the added suppressor

    Yeah, there are some really light adapters ("shoulders"), and some heavy ones...

    And finally the excellent results from Kampfeld (i decided to get it fluted), and the total weight, for now, with and without the ultra 7. Fluting took off about 3 ounces, but he didn't recommend this for 6.5cm and bigger with the kimber profile, #1 I think

    I should add that I took great care with the Swiss cheese routine to not drill comprimising holes aft of the recoil lug. Or, in other words, be careful if you do this, it's easy to compromise the various structural bits in the stock, like the pillars for the action screws.

    1.8 ounces drilled away, and it's still extremely rigid. Still going to bevel the edges with a bigger drill bit. Now, if my gluing the microcell on works (superglue?), I'll have dropped exactly 2oz with foregoing the 2 recoil pad screws. With the Ultra 7 making the 22 creedmoor recoil so...

    The monos I shoot have a .47 BC, only 70 grains, bulldozer II 's, they seem to do the trick. FWIW

    Any chance someone could get us a weight on the stock? Easy to knock a lot of ounces off a plastic stock, especially if it has the typical 4oz recoil pad.

    Thanks again, and thanks for taking one for the team! I have the gen 2 6.5 version, and it's impressive with the 22cm FWIW

    I noticed one report of the 1st round pop being significant with the scythe-Ti, or worse than (ultra 7?)? Being a hunter, this is my primary concern with it. I have one in cart, but afraid to pull the trigger without more decibal tests

    You won't be disappointed. I forgot to add that I also got LRP brass

    I greatly appreciate it! Please let us know if you tracked down the ti end caps. I think Karl has been about 2-3 months lately, but I know mine was held up a bit as his cerakote guy was out of town. YMMV

    The alpha ocd brass is holding up really well with my hot loads, so if you're trying to run em fast, might be worth it

    Lightweight Suppressor Comparison and Poll

    I'm just wondering when someone will make an aluminum bodied can that's significantly lighter than the scythe-Ti. Maybe you need so much more of the aluminum that it doesn't pan out? I know they make some aluminum bodied cans, but they're not all that light, at least not in the rifle...

    Scythe-Ti on sale for $799

    Anybody find a place that stacks these $800ish prices with a military discount?

    Griz guide/backup cartridge

    Is there a 'reliable enough' 12 gauge semiautomatic? Yeah, I'd lean towards something that would have enough energy deposited to try and stop or slow their forward travel, so I could get more slugs in them. When you're talking maybe one shot at a charging bear or you die, you'd want the...

    The 22 creedmoor thread

    Yeah, I went from 308 (ttsx) to 6.5cm (lrx) to this. It's not a recipe for every shot for sure. I passed on a 525 yard broadside shot on a bigger bull as it was just outside my parameters. With a dialing scope it would have been easy. Not a good setup for a less than seasoned elk hunter for...
