Diligent Defense Enticer L-Ti Hunting Setup

[chillybean]

Trying to decide between the Diligent Defense Enticer S-Ti and L-Ti for my Tikka T3X Lite .308 20" barrel. This setup is mainly used for hunting whitetail (tree stand, blind, still hunting). I'm leaning towards L-Ti because of the better sound suppression but am wondering if the length/weight would be an issue? I can see why someone would go with the S-Ti if they were backpack hunting in the mountains or something but would the increased length/weight be as much of an issue for hunting in the whitetail woods? Does anyone have experience with either of these for hunting purposes? TIA

I have roughly both. The DD STI and a DA LTI (same specs roughly).

I personally think for hunting I’d want short/light with good enough suppression. I wouldn’t ever hunt with my LTI. It’s a great range can and if I want that extra few db I will put it on.

I don’t think in a hunting environment you’ll notice the difference in sound. You will notice the difference in weight and length off the front of your rifle.

There are probably better (suppression) shorter/lighter cans available currently too.
