SilencerCo Scythe Ti failures

[twall13]

I joined the catastrophic failure club.

Browning X Bolt, 300 Win Mag 1-8 twist shooting Federal Trophy Copper 180s.

8 rounds through the gun over about 90 minutes (a lot of it was tinkering with the scope and my dope charts). 9th round and it blew apart at the weld.

9 shots total through the suppressor? Or just that session?

How many total rounds did you have through it?

Bummer - mine is holding strong, but haven’t shot any larger cartridges through it yet.

I'm still surprised they have the no restrictions thing... And on the site it doesn't say anything about the 10 shot per minute. Is that in some flyer that comes with the can?

 

[ThreeOhSeven]

I don't remember seeing anything in the packaging about it. This happened on the 3rd shot of the day. I always shoot 3, then wait to cool.
It was definitely alarming when it happened. I instantly knew what happened and starting laughing. The guys in the benches a few benches down were in shock haha.

I almost wonder if they should be making the second and third baffles with thicker walls to get more surface area for the welds. Of course I think a lot of us know the best solution at this point is to buy an Unknown Reaper

It's almost a game now waiting for mine to blow up. It's not if, but when. Another 60 rounds of 6.5 man bun this weekend and nothing. Some were pretty decent strings to. Damn prairie dogs were thick.

Don't worry. Just plan on it

I'll admit, Silencer Co customer service has been responsive and I am expecting a week turn around.
