I can see that you snuck a joke in there but I suppressed my laughter.

This is a serious thread. You need to can it right now or you will be silenced!

Hadn't thought of this. That's a good question. Might be worth having those with failures add if they have it on some sort of QD muzzle brake system.

Mine and I believe I saw most others were direct thread

I think it also includes what will eventually be the barrel length restriction chart for the scythe. Kidding of course but the Jolene restrictions are probably a very good guide for what the scythe can actually handle.

If they changed the recommendations to something along the lines of Jolene, any idea on how many of the reported ones here that would that have changed?

After my scythe come from put together,
I decided to try my brand new Jolene. Put it on a 26” 300 rum, and the insides started rattling after 4 shots. 5 minutes between each shot.
Scythe was back to me in less than a week. Jolene repair took 2 months.

Some good entertainment in line with this thread, particularly the 30 cal can on the 50 BMG

Id be really curious how many of these were exposed to high rate of fire - and then later shot with a magnum later and let go.

Stumbled on this thread because I was looking for answers on a little rattle in my new Sycthe Ti suppressor. I received it a couple of weeks ago, put it on my bolt action 243 Win and had two range sessions working up loads for two different bullet combos. Maybe 50 shots total. Took the suppressor off to clean the barrel and noticed it has a slight rattle. I had to double check and bump it a bit in my hand, but it’s there. I don’t recall that before. It’s just a 243 and no signs any impact on Facebook anything. Is a bit of that normal or am I hooped here? If it’s bad and requires warranty, I guess we’re paying the $200 tax stamp again huh?

I definitely wouldn't put any more rounds through it. The consensus seems to be quick warranty work, and no issues with logging or tax stamp paperwork. I would contact SiCo.

A welded can like that shouldn't rattle. I'd contact them and I bet they'll have you send it in.

No, as long as the rear portion with the serial number stays original there are no stamp fees involved. If they had to provide one with a new serial number then there would be a new stamp fee.

Have you checked the end cap for tightness? I've had a panic moment before where I had a slight rattle but the end cap was just ever so slightly loose. Almost like you need a wrench to tell it can be tightened.

I checked it but by hand. I will put the wrench on it today just in case. Good idea.
