The REAPER from Unknown Suppressors

[KY_coop]

From what i understand, more powder burning makes a brake work better. We will only be shooting that can through his rifle but im sure the brake would work better the harder its pushed. Id atleast get it for any range day you have with the 7 prc.

Has any progress been made on the self-timing brake? My Reaper hasn’t shipped from US yet, so I haven’t ordered the brake yet in hopes that the self-timing version is not far out.
Initially it will only be for 300WM, but soon I’ll want to swap it to a 7 PRC and a 300 SAUM as well, so not having to retime it would be nice. First world problems…

Muzzle forward cans it makes almost very little to no difference. For whatever reason it does make a noticeable difference in some/maybe most reflex or OTB designs.

any chance of seeing an OGL 6.5?

I just built a 22 dasher "pistol" that is begging for a shorter can than my 9" long sico harvester 300 its currently wearing.

It has about 4.5" of barrel in front of the chassis too so an OB would just be perfect

Anyone using the reaper yet? How yall like it?

Got my Reaper out of jail today and so far, I’m very impressed. About 1.5” shorter than and noticeably lighter than my Stealth Project Recon. The Reaper might be a little higher pitched, but it is much, much quieter. The 1.5” reduction in length and 4oz lighter weight is a very noticeable improvement in handling on my 20” .308, even when just getting in and out of the side-by-side. I’ve only put two shots through it so far. The first was the slow-down shot on this running coyote at about 120 yards, and the second a finisher. I guess it didn’t change the zero much. I’ll know more when I put it on paper tomorrow.

Heard one a 6UM at the range, and it sounded good.

Rezeroed my rifle with the US Reaper on it today. Since the last zero check, the scope had been removed from the rail and reinstalled and the Stealth Project Recon replaced by the US Reaper. 1st sighter was high and left. Over corrected on the 1st adjustment and second sighter was right and low. Made one more adjustment and the next ten clustered into a .548” group well centered in the bullseye. The Reaper definitely has no adverse effects on how this rifle shoots. Also shot a six round group to test a different load. Shot all 18 shots with no ear pro just to get a feel for how quiet it is, and it is very, very quiet. Tone is more of a crack than a thud, but did I mention it’s quiet? I’m impressed.

Thanks for the report!
I’m hoping mine ships soon.

3 days still waiting on approval.

Anyone able to give a length measurement of just the main barrel? Just wanting to get a mirage cover ordered.
