.223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

I’m in love with my cheap OCL polonium 556. Really quiet with my 223 and will work fine on a 22creed and any 6mm. Can’t wait for the hydrogen model.

This. Heck, even my Gemtech Tracker on a .223 with thread adapter is WAAAAAY better than shooting unsuppressed. But the Polonium punches way above it's price point that's for sure.

I’m with you on ear pro. I double up with one exception - my 223 with the Magnus when hunting. I *think* it’s hearing safe. But it’s unwieldy length wise, even with the 16.5” barrel

I have an AB raptor with a 3” reflex that I use on all my guns. I wouldn’t shoot a lot of rounds out of it without ear pro, but a few out of my 18” Tikka does not cause significant differences in my current tinnitus level. Would not do that out of an AR though. The Tikka has similar recoil to a spring position airgun with the can. Highly recommend the suppressor even for 223s. I don’t shoot centerfire rifles without them anymore.

Hearing protection plus a suppressor makes for a fun gun, my friends daughter was 8yo in thus vid and its been her favourite rifle to shoot for years

My daughter bang flopped her first buck (first animal of any kind) this morning. 77 TMK, supressed Tikka 223. Pics and more to say later, but this combo is simply superb.
