  • .223 suppressor

    Still working on my form-1 .223 suppressor. Video from testing it out last week.

    Re: .223 suppressor

    Seems good but have you looked more seriously into silencing friendly calibers like .300 Whisper/Blackout?

    Years ago I tried a Ruger .44 magnum bolt gun with an integrally suppressed barrel. It was perfectly fine for midrange work and had zero power issues with a subsonic .44 bullet cruising downrange. Kind of an arcing trajectory, but a good choice when quiet means quiet. Not sewing machine MAC 11 quiet, but pretty quiet.

    Quietest I remember hearing was an old school early 1980s MAC-11 with a suppressor that was about the size of a small motorcycle muffler. It sounded like a sewing machine out of tune, like a rapid click clacking of the action than the sound of the bullets going downrange.

      yes. I did a .308/300BLK already. Hollywood quiet on subs.

      So far I've made a .22 can, integral 10/22, .308, and this .223. I have a stamp back for a 9mm I haven't started yet and a .45 stamp on the way.
