Assuming a fast 7 - Rem Mag or PRC - What suppressor would you guys say would offer the most sound suppression - and ultra 7, or a Scythe ?

Easy, nomad Ti XC

I wouldn't be surprised if the Ultra 7 edged the scythe slightly in strict Db measures. Its longer, heavier, and more expensive though. I have a g1 U7 and a scythe but dont care enough to swap them around on the same rifle to try to compare. They are close enough.

I’d want a bigger suppressor for that much powder.
Unless you’re keeping the barrel long.

Everything is a trade off with suppressors.

Im thinking a 22" barrel, possibly 20 - that why 6-7" high end titatium suppressors make the most sense to me...

I have a backcountry Banish which did great on my sons 6.5 creed with a 21" barrel, just want to take up the suppression ability for one that will go on a magnum 7.

Haven’t looked if they are in stock at the moment but have been Bauer precision with a discount code is tough to beat.

I’d want a 6-7” on a 22” barrel.

If willing to go shorter, like 18” I think a bigger suppressor does cut down on more recoil.

I am thrilled with my Resilient Jolene S. I also have a DD Enticer STi and a DTF 8.6 STi as well. DD is about 19 weeks out if you order one. They might be in stock somewhere though.

Anybody know where I could get a scythe ti at the moment? Might have changed my mind.
I've been watching dealers regularly and haven't caught one until today when my local dealer somehow had one sitting there. I think you've just got to keep checking everywhere until one shows up. Super popular right now.

Oh and the Nomad Ti XC are awesome too :)
The DD Enticers are great for the $$$ with not much less performance than the Nomad. A stainless steel model is less than $500. I don't own one but probably will at that price.

Aren’t people having welds fail on the scythe?
I had a weld fail on mine last weekend (after about 200 rounds on 7 prc). Quickly received a email with return authorization after submitting warranty claim (very good customer service so far). Waiting for either a repaired or new Scythe. Hopefully they will honor the warranty.

If you guys were building a lightweight smaller profile barreled rifle, would you get the barrel you want and thread it 1/2x28 and use an adapter up to 5/8x24? Or would you just get a barrel with a larger profile (.700) at the muzzle? I am thinking the adapters look slick and will give it a nice shoulder and I will be able to get a smaller diameter barrel. Not sure if there are any negatives to the adapters I am not aware of.

If you want a light profile barrel, have your gunsmith machine an adapter or added shoulder directly on your barrel permanently.

It depends on what exactly you are referring to as adapter.

A gunsmith installing what is essentially a permanent bushing the machining the face square, yes that’s feasible.

If you mean adapter such as just a threaded inside and out adapter you buy off whatever website.
Nah not for me.

But I would order whatever is the lightest profile that can be bedded 5/8x24 and have it fluted if I was worried about weight.

Have a smith add a shoulder to the lighter contour and thread 5/8 works well.

Thanks guys! Seems like the consensus is ditch the threads inside threads adapter and just have a gunsmith do a permanent one.
It’s just stacking tolerances with those adapters.
And multiple shoulders that would have to be square.

Do it rite, you def don’t want a baffle strike.
