Ultralight Ultralight Rifles

[hereinaz]

I have the wolf hunter, it’s nice but longer. I wish a little that I would have gone with a shorter can.

I am going to try the Thunder beast ultra 5 6.5 gen 2 for my ulul build

You've probably already read, but a lot of people have been disappointed with that one

The Wolf Hunter from DD is a great can. It's quiet on my .243. However, you don't need that much internal volume for a 6x45. If weight is the goal, I'd look hard at Wyoming Arms' 5 Squared titanium suppressor with a 6mm hole. It's only 5 ounces. On paper, it seems ideal, but I've never seen or used one, so this is only theoretical.

For the ultimate 6x45 build, I'd rock a 12-inch barrel and have someone pin and weld the 5 Squared can to bring overall length to 17 inches. That would be sweet.

Thanks I appreciate the input got shaw barrel today

I'd trust stupidlightweight's recommendation, or the scythe-ti. Not sure if the WYarms5S is "hearing safe", as most of the lightest cans aren't. But, less hearing damage is a lot better than more!

I trust his opinion also I was trying to get as much reduction in noise as possible and as much input as possible as most of these cans are kinda expensive but I have decided to have 2 ULUL rifles a 223 and a 6x45 and that will more than cover anything I will hunt from now on as my age will get me before long

If you want quiet, I'd read everything available before you get anything smaller than the scythe-ti. For comparison, I carried my Ultra 7 gen 2 all over nasty terrain and it was tolerable (bad back and knee), so the scythe-ti is excellent at similar noise suppression but 20+% lighter

C Bow, if the goal is ultimate sound reduction, do not get a dinky can from WY Arms. I repeat, don't get that can.

For noise reduction, volume (as in space) is critical. The Wolf Hunter is the best 6mm option I know of. It will sound great on a 6x45 and .223 without much added weight or length. For a dedicated .223 can, the quietest I have used is the Silencer Central Banish .223.

The Scythe-Ti is another wonderful option, and if you ever plan on using it on larger rifles, that's the route to go. But if you're only gonna use this can on a .223 or 6x45, I wouldn't suggest a .30-caliber can.

I’ve got a handful of suppressors, and really can’t say I notice a practical difference using .22, .30, .36, .45 cal cans with an appropriately sized endcap. Granted, my 223 cans are on the small end, but they’re perfectly comfortable for hunting shots.

Omega 36m
AB Raptor 10
Griffin Bushwhacker 46
Griffin Optimus Micro
Griffin Resistance 22m

Personally, I’d go toward a Scythe or 30 cal Raptor 6/8 for lightweight.

I have a raptor 6 30 cal and to me it seems to be on the edge of hearing safe with a 16” 223, if I were to do it again I’d go with the raptor 8 over the 6
