SilencerCo Scythe Ti failures

[pods8 (Rugged Stitching)]

I mean for ***** sake, admit there's a weld issue, beef up the weld and send us on our way with something more durable.

Yessir.

Next week's bull elk hunt will have to be unsuppressed. 2nd round of the day thru 7PRC 22 inch barrel shooting federal 155 terminal ascent. Overall 80 7mm PRC rounds, 80 30-06 and 80 270 Winchester all factory ammo. Purchased November 2024

Out of curiosity and not sure it makes a difference but how many of you are running qd muzzle brakes under your scythe or just direct thread? Mine is still chugging along on a 22” 6.5 prc and wonder if the brake is making a difference in longevity.

Direct thread plus I babied my suppressor. Knowing its history always let it cool 3 minutes or so between shots but still blew up.

Direct thread. There are so many variables, I think it would be hard to find any direct correlation that would affect failure rate.

I used the A419 mounting system.

I've been trying to stay out of this one... I liked my lightweight little scythe-ti...

But alas, mine went kaboom today.

It's had 500 or so rounds of 223rem/5.56 through it (16 inch barrel), and 50 or so 22 creedmoor (18 inch barrel). All factory ammo.

All bolt action, never more than 3 rounds at a time before it has a chance to cool.

Today was 22 creedmoor, and it went on the 7th round after about 30 minutes since the 6th shot.

No baffle strike.

Serial number just above 2500

Mine has been living uneventfully with light use on a 243 with 24" barrel. 22 creed has slightly more powder volume than the 243. I'm going to baby this can until it pops or SilencerCo issues a recall.

Welcome to RS and lets keep our fingers crossed for a recall.

22cm has less case capacity than a 243. Although I would probably guess the 22cm has a high muzzle VS the 243 depending on load/powder type.
