Suppressor mount-QD or direct thread

[Shootinsurveyor]

Looking for the consensus opinion on best mount type as it pertains to accuracy. Looking into Hub 2.0 vs direct thread. The QD systems seem to cost more, which isn’t the end of the world especially after how much suppressors cost at this point. I see that a lot of bolt action guys run direct thread. I personally did see a Sandman with keymo on a custom bolt that doubled the group size. Still not a bad group but did have a negative overall effect.

This is what keeps me up at night. I just want the utmost in accuracy and ease of use switching between guns

Gonna boil down to preference based on how you use it. Some guys buy one Can and use it on a bunch of guns, some put a Can on and never remove it. I prefer DT for less weight, less length, and fewer mating surfaces, but I can't own a Can for every rifle I have and these rifles are threaded in different patterns and I hate thread adapters so most likely I'll end up moving to the Area 419 hellfire system.

Direct thread if you are concerned about precision.

Definitely direct thread if accuracy is paramount. You shouldn’t see major POI shifts if using a quality QD system though

Keep it simple, direct thread.

Do you lose any sound suppression with direct thread versus having a flash hider or brake QD mounting system?

Do the suppressor alignment issues mostly happen with QD mounts, or are direct thread alignment issues just as common??

I run griffins taper mounts on everything but rimfires and my mk12 with an ops collar. Makes life much easier if there's a mix of 1/2 and 5/8 threaded rifles. Probably all marketing to but I like the idea of having the brake as an "extra" blast baffle to protect the suppressor. Don't shoot any guns without suppressors anymore so cant speak to poi shift but they're more accurate than I am. I have a scythe ti, explorr 300, and nomad 30 coming all with griffin mounts so everything interchanges and also haven't had any backing off issues.

I prefer direct thread for hunting rifles and qd for gas guns. Seven suppressors and plenty of hosts and I've not seen any concerns with accuracy loss. The accuracy always stays the same or improves. I can't really speak to poi shift as I never shoot without a can, because that's for heathens.
