@Jskaanland is going to check with the tech folks, thinks they will have a backup.

I revoted my non-failure, but,it has never seen anything more than a bolt 223, probably pushing 5.56 pressure with handloads.

Mine blew apart on me this morning at my range doing some load work . Shot mostly on 6 creeds . Put it on my 300 prc with 26 inch barrel, mild load of Retumbo. 3rd shot when it blew. Scoped me and gave me a bloody nose. Glad it did it before general season opens and not during season, so I have time to get it repaired.

This is beyond ridiculous at this point.

I decided to put the 6.5 Creed that mine lives on in a KRG Bravo I already had in order to add some weight for when it inevitably blows up. Hopefully I won’t get punished quite as much with the extra weight.

I’ve been putting it through its paces with the 6.5 Creed but no failures yet. I got it hot enough to melt the coban of my homemade suppressor cover last time I shot it but it’s still going strong so far…

September 12, my Scythe-ti went boom. Today the 24th I just got it back from warranty repair.

They wanted me to pay for the shipping to get it to them... I politely declined... so they graciously paid for shipping both ways.

 

[lager]

Well darn it. I got stuck for shipping Fed Ex. I was surprised they didnt offer shipping label.

Well it finally happened. Today mine decided to race the bullet down range. Found the front half of the can 50 yards down range. Blew cleanly at the 3rd weld. I had 440 rounds through it, mostly 7 PRC and some 6.5 CM both with 22 in barrels.

I have been waiting for two scythes to blow up any day now. I purchase a OG 6.5 so looking forward to a can that will keep it together

im glad it blew up now, rather than on a hunt...its a race tho now to get a new suppressor. Can't decide between the Reaper or the Theorem S...

Reaper, I think. The second sheet has the comparative stats for the Theorem S and Reaper. Both are good suppressors as far as I know.
