Ridgeback Rhodie 6

I’ve seen nothing but good about this suppressor, but I trust this forum’s opinions on anything outdoors. If you have firsthand experience with this suppressor, how do you like it? It’ll be on an 18” gas 6mm arc.

I run one on my 16" 22 ARC gas gun, as the shooter my polonium is just as quiet. As a bystander, it's quieter than the polo. This is my first flow through can so I was not used to seeing the gasses through the scope so that tripped me out for a minute, but other than that I like it a lot and don't regret the purchase. I'll probably buy the Ti version before to long to go on my night time 22 ARC, but also want to see what Unknown comes out with this fall for a gas gun.

Seems most places I read about the Rhodie and the Fireteam cans have them at the top of the heap for .223/5.56 cans. I know I never see anything about them on here. But im well aware Rokslide can be an echo chamber when it comes to some products and what gets recommended. Even if the person doing the recommending has zero actual experience with the product. I use DD Wolf Hunter currently on my 223 but ive only used it on bolt guns. I use an Omega 300 on my gas guns but id definitely be interested in comments here bc those are very gassy

I’ve heard they’re a great can. Not trying to make this about US but the Og6-s I keep hearing is a great gas gun can if anyone is wondering. I liked it on the 22 ARC yesterday. Just don’t abuse it since it’s Titanium but for hunting and general shooting, ppl are absolutely loving it. But if you’re set on the Rhodie for your usage, I don’t think that’s a bad call at all!

Been using mine mostly on a 16” 556 hog hunting . Sounds pretty good to me but I don’t have another silencer in its class to compare ( fireteam , Tisha, velos , hux , etc ) . But it does sound alot better than my old school specwar 556 .

I don't have one yet, but after reading and seeing pretty uniformly good reviews, I ordered one of the first batch of the TI version when they dropped a few weeks ago. I probably won't get it for at least a month given the pre-order timeframe, but I'll be putting it in the rotation on a couple of my main 6mm ARC gas guns, and maybe my 12.5" 5.56. I've shifted to using my CAT Noah TI on these rifles and am totally sold on lower backpressure hybrid cans over the baffle type cans I used to use, if he Rhodie is on par with the Noah, I'll be very pleased.

I did read that Ridgeback is going to be bringing out a Ti version of the 4.5" Rhodie 6k as well, probably sometime in June. The 6k has a reputation for being almost as quiet as the 6, but slightly higher backpressure. If I like the longer 5.5" Rhodie 6 TI, I might pick up one of these 6k Ti's as well, keep the 6 on my 13" ARC, and the 6k on my longer 18" ARC.
