The Thunderbeast suppressors are fantastic! I have an Ulra 9 .30 caliber that I use on everything from .22 LR to .300 mag and it works exceptionally well. It is all titanium and super light. I have had mine a few years and is the previous version and the newer models are even quieter. The makers are long range shooters and use their products in competitions and are world class shooters. A suppressor is also better than any muzzle brake for recoil reduction

Now as for wait times, I'm currently about 90 days into the wait for my third can .First two took 11 months and 13 months. I've got my fingers crossed this one will happen quicker. My dad is about 120 days into the wait for his second can. |

I have two suppressors, both are made by Dead Air. One is for rimfire (Mask HD) and the other is a No-Mad 30 caliber. Both are awesome!! Only thing Id do different is order the 30 caliber in titanium. I use the No-Mad 30 cal on my TC 30-30 Ackley pistol, 223 pistol, 6.5x47 Lapua XP-100, 2 Ar-15s (coyote rifles) and a 308 Win Ruger Scout rifle.
I rarely run sub loads. It was mainly to lessen the crack at night while hunting coyotes.

I have had mine a few years and is the previous version and the newer models are even quieter. The makers are long range shooters and use their products in competitions and are world class shooters. A suppressor is also better than any muzzle brake for recoil reduction Recoil reduction results from the slowing of propellant gases that contribute 30–50% of recoil velocity. However, some suppressors can increase the backpressure produced by the propellant gases. This can cause them to function somewhat like a muzzle booster and thus increase the felt recoil. After the name of a muzzle brake is.....a muzzle brake. That's what it's specifically designed for. It may be because the suppressor is so much more quiet then a muzzle brake that the reduced noise from it it is fooling you into thinking it cuts the recoil more. We need an actual test. You don't see many suppressors on 50 caliber rifles. You also don't see suppressors on cannons! |

A suppressor is also better than any muzzle brake for recoil reduction The ThunderBeast is probably the best can on the market. I have cans from everyone you can think of and all of my personal cans have moved to TBAC. They aren’t the cheapest but I’ve found them to be the most consistent. Rugged makes a great can, just heavier. The Rugged Surge is an awesome can, just heavy. I probably have shot 75-100 different cans for demos and comparisons and these are my choice. Recoil reduction is not what I’d say about a suppressor. They actually completely change the recoil impulse. Shoot a big rifle with one and lit will show you quickly it isn’t reducing it 😜 |

They slow the high speed gases down so they don't make the sonic crack. So in doing so the recoil will feel different. I kind of think of them in the recoil aspect as a shock absorber. |

I should have said the recoil is spread out longer and makes it feel different. The .300 Win Mag is the largest rifle I have used a suppressor on and it was a lot more comfortable to shoot with the can than without it. It was the same for the lighter recoiling calibers.

Also tell him to get in the habit of using a glove to remove the suppressor. All the gasses it traps makes it hot as hades. I made the mistake only once of just grabbing it to unthread it after shooting a .223 after 30 rounds and that was enough to correct my ways

And if it’s a compact brake or QD, you’re better off letting it cool while you shoot another so you done remove the brake and the can at once. 🤣 My son grabbed one of ours after lighting a mag off in one of the M16s. I wasn’t fast enough to tell him no. But he let go fast and never did it again |

It doesn’t take long to determine if a pan or skillet,……or can is hot. But sometimes it feels like it took too long.

You will only do it once on a fully automatic weapon I promise you. |
