jolene s vs ab 10

[bnsafe]

Ive never owned a suppressor and honestly dont shoot all that much. How is the sound between the 2 first off, and second I know the ab weighs more but does it really make that much difference on a 20 inch barrel?
I guess I should add that this will be mainly staying on a 243 or 6 arc im gonna get, with it possibly going on a 308 occassionally tho doubtful.

I have never heard a Jolene S, but I have heard an AB10 with 5” bull barrel reflex. It was one of the quietest suppressors I’ve heard in person and ranks with the nomad LTi and TBAC 338 ultra.

I have an ab a-10 and with 308 sized cartridges I really like it.

Sorry no experience with Jolene S but owners seem to like them on here.

I assumed he was asking about the A-10 can rather than a raptor 10 stack, @bnsafe maybe clarify if you're talking about a AB raptor 10 or A-10 because they are quite different.

sorry, the cheap a 10 can vs resilient jolene s.

Apologies for offering an opinion that does not answer your question.
I have a regular Jolene that came with a non-concentric mount. Resilient replaced it with a non-baffled DTA that was more concentric, but not nearly as good as a third party mount.
I am also aware of an owner of the Jolene S who had it fail Scythe style.
Learning about that is why I purchased a Reaper. My son and his lesser powered rifle will host the Jolene, and I’ll use a KGM R30 on the 300WM until the Reaper arrives.

Between those two I would get the A-10. It’s a good can.

does the extra weight throw it out of balance on say a 20 inch barrel

I’d say, “no.” That is based on using a Raptor 8 w/ 3” reflex (13.3 ounces vs 11.7 ounces) on the end of a 20” barrel.

Not a question that can be easily answered. Not every gun with a 20" barrel balances the same and one person's idea of well balanced might not be another's. In general I wouldn't think a 12 ounce can would be too bad.
