Re: A "quiet" rifle build.

Nice build, does anyone manufacture parts for a AR build in this cartridge? Or is it to long to fit?

 

[Bacarrat]

Re: A "quiet" rifle build.

They have a similar cartridge(sub-sonic .338), the .338 Spectre that can fit into AR15s

Re: A "quiet" rifle build.

Ok so its going below 1100 FPS . What is the type and weight powder charge. Some one said they hunt coyotes with it ? Any pictures or stories of coyote stands with this caliber

I did however run a 30cal can on my SBR in 6.8 SPC. After one 30 round mag it was so hot that you couldnt haven even taken it off with gloves without melting them. I was just worried about the 9mm can in a similar scenario being that its not built to a 30cal cans specs and usually not as thick (in the tubes walls) could it get so hot that it deforms and causes failure to your rifle or can? Being that the baffles in the pistol can arent built like a 30cal can, would you get decreased life with rifle calibers?
</div></div>

My testing of 9mm suppressors on rifle calibers being fired in their standard supersonic form was done with the knowledge that certain concessions must be made. No more than 5 rounds could be fired in a row before the can was allowed to cool. There is more to it, feel free to call me--my cell is all over the net, but the testing was done for a specific purpose. And it is not destruction testing.

There is a huge different between the heat and pressures achieved with supersonic rifle rounds and subsonic rifle rounds. Effectively the 9mm suppressor will receive less wear and tear with subsonic .300 whisper and .338 calibers than it would on a 9mm MP5 running full tilt. Obviously certain 9mm designs are more tolerant. Stainless initial blast baffles being superior to a straight aluminum stack.

I've tested the .338 Spectre quite extensively. It's the same concept, launching a .338 projectile subsonic suppressed, it just also runs in a standard AR15 format.

Re: A "quiet" rifle build.

Very interesting thread. What will be the effective range of the 300gr SMK at subsonic velocity ?
Thanks for posting pics of your project.

Good info you posted in this thread Aaron. Someones guess just doesn't have the same quality as the experience of someone who is doing what's being discussed.

Hey Bachelor Jack your PM's are full, wanted to know if anyone is using a powder other than IMR trail boss, if there is something better that would work in a magnum caliber or a filler that is recommended?

Re: A "quiet" rifle build.

The first brake in rounds on the .338 Quiet. These pix were taken today in Montana. The AWC .338 can is here in Az with me. Was told it sounded like a.22 magnum without the Suppressor. Woo HOO!

No, just black stock and flutes on the barrel. Action and barrel are too nice to cover w/paint

[Tucsondave]

Re: A "quiet" rifle build.

What, no .510? You gotta build that one so I can borrow it. Those pix were taken by NBC News.

 

[Smokin99]

Re: A "quiet" rifle build.

Oh yes the 510FatGirl is coming along.....LOL

After shooting this thing I now need a fast 338 barrel also,,,,,never ends!

 

[Tucsondave]

Re: A "quiet" rifle build.

Groups! We demand groups!

 

[Tucsondave]

Re: A "quiet" rifle build.

Zeroed today and shot nickel sized groups at 100. Rounds loaded way,way north of me were running Subsonic there,but ran Supersonic here. Averaged 1125-1140FPS here in Az. Gonna tone down the rounds and see how that affects groups and overall sound. Pix next time

That turned out great Chris and Dave!
