Dedicated gas gun can

[Ac338]

Having a hard time making a decision on a can for my wife’s coyote gun build. We have plenty of surpressors for our bolt guns but what would you recommend for a dedicated Ar can. 22 arc 18” barrel rifle length gas system with an adjustable gas block. Mix of banging steel and coyote hunting.
So far I’ve been looking at the Cat WB. Anything else out there that may be better? Thanks in advance

It depends on what you mean by "better" - more durable, better back-pressure characteristics, weight, etc. The WB seems to be a really good all-around can though. Definitely not a "wrong" choice, and IIRC they offer a titanium version, which is what I'd personally go for in a hunting or recreational gun. For a gas gun, it's not a bad idea to prioritize backpressure reduction. The WB is offered as a "reduced backpressure" design, and should be fine.

There's a lot of innovation in the suppressor world right now, so it's hard to keep up. The OCL Polonium K is a good hard-use option, with decent backpressure characteristics, and I went with that one for one of my ARs not long ago. The CGS Helios, the Huxwrx Flow 556K, and the WB are the only other ones I'd presently consider for most normal gas guns at the moment. There may very well be better ones in different categories, but all four are solid options, depending on what you're prioritizing.

The recce5 has treated me well! Unsure if the boys over at griffin have anything new and groundbreaking for civilians. But they have a showroom now and offer direct to consumers. But I can’t get across town during their hours to confirm.

I have a Optimus 6 waiting at my ffl for pickup. It’s their latest and greatest.

Thanks for the suggestions I’m terrible at making up my mind. So we’re ordering the WB and Optimus 6. Have a couple more lowers waiting for me to do something with so they’ll get put to use

I have a couple of griffins, along with a few other brands. No complaints on my griffins.

The CAT ODB has better PewScience numbers than the WB. The ODB is a fantastic AR15/AR10 can. I own two and have been hovering over the buy another button.

OTOH- Silencer Analytics on Youtube is pretty keen on the Sig Hexium556. He rates that can as the equal to the CAT JL in a much nicer 6" size.

I have a cat Noah that I really like. I’d maybe take a look at their vb6 if you’re not in a huge hurry.
