Triple 6 Update/Delay

[cwitt]

Any chance these will handle a 25 cal?

Don’t want to name names to get anybody in trouble but somebody in the booth at the expo said they didn’t see an issue as long as everything lined up correctly.

I was told it will be very tight and should be checked with an alignment rod on any rifle larger than 6mm.

We had the opportunity to shoot some of the protoypes last week. Testing is ongoing, but I was impressed with the size and performance of the Triple 6 that I used. I believe the differences between protoypes were all internal, but here is a picture of a Triple 6 on a 16" barrel next to an 18" barrel with Griffin minimalist taper adapter. There was another prototype in heavy use that bested mine in performance (both sound/tone and flash reduction).

The bore on the new 6mm can is such that it is going to be .223/6mm only.

MMMMAYYYBE 25 cal, definitely not 6.5

Wow, that’s cool to see. Does this only add 3ish inches to OAL?

Yes, not sure the exact measurement past the end of the barrel but just seeing it next to my 18" barrel with the griffin as a thread protector was impressive. You could close your eyes on the range and clearly hear the difference between some of the cans being used, but tone (both good and bad) was way easier to discern than minute differences in db.

Regardless of the actual OAL increase is I’d say it’s short enough for me.

finished design will be 3" and 3". Original design was 2" and 4". 6" overall, 1.625 diameter, going to be around 6oz, we have prototypes that are lighter than 6 and some that are heaver than 6. Our current best prototype is 6.2 oz IIRC.

Assume still a no-go on carbon fiber barrels?

Seekins carbon fits! It has the normal .75" barrel hole that the OGs have. The plan for 1" barrel reflexes right now is the Reaper reflex. Tentatively the plan to launch the Reaper reflex, 4" reaper, and 8" reaper is august 1.

Will the reflex reapers all be 30 cal or is there a plan for 6.5 as well?

I believe all the current reapers have a swappable end cap so doubt that would be any different moving forward.

Mostly revisiting the thought process behind the initial post here but: Outside of being 6mm/.223 focused what is the intended market of the Triple 6 that the OG-65 doesn't fulfill, or what use case might it be better suited for? In essence, if me a potential buyer is looking at your lineup of OG-65 or the Triple6 is OAL and caliber specificity the primary deciding factors between the two?

End cap changes is totally different than bore size.

4" reaper will be .30, 8" reaper will be .338. We have kicked around the idea of a 6.5 reaper because we have the reflex coming out. It is not in our plan for the near future, possibly next year.

The 6mm suppressor is going to be about 1.5oz lighter, 2" shorter overall, and most importantly only 3" in front of the muzzle. For most people running a muzzle brake your talking about only adding .5-1" length overall.

We've also kicked around the idea of the 4" reaper being 6.5 6" reaper already .30 and 8" reaper being .338. I dont think this is what we are going to do.
