SilencerCo Scythe Ti failures

[thinhorn_AK]

Had a failure with the Scythe Ti this afternoon. Took my son out to let him shoot the 7PRC and the first shot related in the failed. He was scoped pretty good and we had to glue him up. If I could get a refund or have the $$ put towards another suppressor type I would but it sounds like that won’t be an option.


1. Customer 7 PRC 120 rounds down the barrel.

2. Barrel length: 22”

3. 180 grain Hornady ELDM hand loads

4. Loaded 2 grains under max load recs

5. Details of failure: Split at 3rd weld from rear of silencer

Tell them your kid got hurt and they need to make it right.

Yikes, I’m sorry to see your son got scoped, that looks painful. I grew up shooting a 270 and had a similar experience when I was 14. Made me recoil shy for life and I’m still working through it.

That said, glad he’s okay and his eye didn’t get injured!

I’ve used mine since march, and I’ve used it on 6 and 22 Creedmoor, 22GT, and tried it on subsonic bolt action 300 blackout. It’s not my primary or secondary can bc I mostly night hunt coyotes and want the quietest can for that (AB raptor 10 in .22 bore with a 5” reflex or diligent defense LTi both of which I use on my primary 2 rifles in 20” barrel 22 Creedmoor for hunting).

I have 0 doubt, that will be a permanent scar. It likely won't be big, but you will be able to see it. I know they are in litigation for other supressor malfunctions. If you have some $ and want them to squirm, I'd have a lawyer write them a letter..

Same weld failure as mine.

Paying attention to weight on the end of a rifle is important.

I think the Ultra 7 is a bit outdated these days. It’s longer, heavier, and louder than many newer alternatives.
