Fingers crossed on mine. No issues to date and love the can. Close to 500 rounds consisting of 12” 556, 18” 7prc, 18” 22-250, 16” 556, 16” 6 arc and a little bit of 10.5” 300blk.

Probably close to 40-50% of that is the 18” 7prc with a stout load of N570.

My shot groups are typically 3-5 rounds, then let the barrel cool to the touch with a chamber chiller. Not sure if that plays any part of it. I try to keep the titanium from getting too hot to prevent excessive baffle wear but maybe it’s also a good idea to prevent the welds from separating.

Edit to add- I have not cleaned the can. Never have for centerfire as it’s not needed per mfr.

My scythe-ti blew up in around 300 rounds in combination with a 25 prc and 300 wsm in 22" barrels. Mild loads in both. Never did anything but cold bore shooting. They had originally told me it would be fine in my 22" 300 norma improved with the mild loads Im using. I didn't have a baffle strike as I hit the bullseye at 890 yds. Can separated and the front half went 50 yds down range. Separated right at the weld. The wall is only .030 thick roughly. Wouldnt mind it being a hair thicker as it wouldnt add any weight. The warranty and replacement process was easy and I had a replacement in 2 weeks. Ill use it on cull hunts around the house. But I won't be taking it in the middle of nowhere hunting. I have the TBAC Magnus K RR on the way. Have the Magnus S RR and its amazing. The K will be a hair lighter and shorter. More ideal for a hunting setup. And TBAC is bomb proof.
