Enough to use over the OG for most of your work?

No. See post #77.

Wait…I have a Reaper ordered for after Jan So I could /should add the OTB and/or the brake???

They don't have the exact launch date yet for the OTB HUB, but its going to be soon!

You can buy the reaper brake off our website.

The Reaper is an interesting name for a can that started as "a Scythe that doesn't suck".

Does the scythe suck? Or just have a chance to call the reaper to see you when it explodes?

I'm wildly ignorant and inexperienced with suppressors.

My 30-06 has a 3 port area419 brake on it currently, it is a 22" barrel I think, and I am used to 26" plus a brake (this is a new barrel).

What would I experience/feel/hypothetically gain with a braked suppressor like the Reaper? Does the brake have similar affect on recoil like one would on a non-suppressed/braked rifle?

@Unknown Suppressors Cliff or Cory can answer that one.

An OG35 would be sweet for my 358win build.

PS: I understand it’s unrealistic. Especially on this forum but there’s a lot of 350 legend guys out there that might want to make there 16” barrel rifle as shorts as possible and hearing safe.

Go further and one that’s sounds hearing safe for a full power 45-70 and not 20 oz.

Good question.
I think the market would support something between $1.5k to $2k.

Right now one could easily spend that much on a big name barrel, chambering work, and then the suppressor and regulatory fees.

Obviously this would need to be a quality product that would stand on its own merits when compared to a separate barrel and suppressor. But providing a streamlined product with good balance, suppression, and accuracy would absolutely have a market.

I don’t see this barrel being for the high volume practice rifle. But a 6creed barrel (or 6um or whatever) that gets 2-3 hundred shots per season for the next 5-10 years would 100% be worth it to me.

The high volume practice rifle, the class rifle, the competition rifle; these would all be better served by treating the barrel like a consumable wear item.
But there are rifles that get used only during hunting seasons. These rifles would be perfect for an integrally suppressed barrel.

This is something I've been thinking about as well. I think it might be more realistic if suppressors become non-NFA, though. Like you say, high volume/low barrel life situations wouldn't be ideal, but I think the juice might well be worth the squeeze in something like 308/6.5 CM/6 ARC.

Interested in the OG-M ideal (but likely not realistic) would be 5-6 inch forward of muzzle, 3-4 inch OTB suppression and recoil reduction on par with long titanium hunting cans (nomad LTI XC, etc). 1.5”ish diameter, admittedly just because I prefer the appearance on thin barrels

My personal use case would be x-bolt speed in 7prc with the 24” thin sporter barrel. The nomad xc LTI gives the performance I’m looking for but a thicc can that is 8” long looks goofy and makes for a really long rifle.

Also, not sure how hard/expensive it would be to make thread adapters in m13x.75 for the x bolt. Seems like a fairly popular platform, but with really poor aftermarket support due to the proprietary nature
