Suppressors 338 rifle suppressor combos

[Will86]

I’m looking to buy a 338 lapua rifle and suppressor. I’m considering Desert Tech, McMillan, Surgeon, and Accuracy International for the rifle. I’m leaning towards desert tech because the also make suppressors specifically designed for their rifles. Are there any other companies I should consider for rifles? And what suppressors are people pairing with their 338s?

Accuracy international AXMC and TBAC 338 Ultra. Top of the line in both regards.

There’s only one answer you’ll get from this crowd...

My stamp for a Crux ArchAngel 338 was approved 10/25. Its for a PCR 338 Norma.

If I had to choose another I’d try an AWC PSR XL or a KGMade Rogue 338.

TiTan QD on my AI PSR. Works great. I run TBAC as well, but not on 338.. yet.

SAS Vengeance, bought it when the Mile High/SAS issue happened and couldn't be happier. Interchanges with my 338 Ack Imp and 2 different RUM's and its been great.

I have a PSR that I have a 338 Ultra on. Love them both.

This is a winning combo

One of the things I like about my 338 Ultra is being about to shoot other smaller calibers through it. Here is my 338 Ultra and 300 Whisper/Blackout ammo with Berger 230s. Working the bolt makes more noise than the gun going off. You can hear the steel ringing in the background between shots.

34" .338 Snipetac w/ Elite Iron can off of my cheytac.

If I can't hit you...... I'll just poke your eye out?

AI AXMC. Just filed paperwork for my tbac 338 ultra.

338 ultra is the best option out there in my opinion. You won’t be disappointed with it one bit.

 

[Deadman Pointers]

I'm in the same situation. Does anyone have any positives or negatives to say about Silencerco's big bore offering? From a pricing perspective, TBAC is very proud of their 338 Ultra.

 

[Zak Smith]

It *is* the best though,

Does anyone know if the Ultra 338 will hold up to the new Tubb 33xc?

When you find out let us know.

Could someone forward me the case water capacity please?

I shoot a big bore harvester and it has exceeded my expectations. Just took my 20" 338 LM axmc to a mile with it yesterday and got several hits. Sounds good on my 6.5 creed too. It is not titanium like the 338 ultra though and depending on your surroundings, the big bore anchor brake directs sound back to the shooter. In the open desert its killer, deep in the woods, not so much.

If I had to do it over again, I might have gotten the 338 ultra if I didn't already have several silencerco cans because everyone I have shot next too sounds great.

Could someone forward me the case water capacity please?

I am told the unfired case is 138.3 grains of water

Here is some actual test data of amounts of powder being used along with velocities too.

Those loads don't seem that bad. I'll run it by our engineering staff to see what we could OK for sure.

Thank you!

Hi Zak, any word from the engineers regarding 33xc and the 338 ultra yet?

Thanks again,

Todd

 

[Zak Smith]

I spoke before I knew they were on vacation this week. Should have something early next week. Sorry for delay

 

[Zak Smith]

33XC should be GTG at 28" barrels or longer, and the 338 Ultra.

 

[MACHTECH]

Thank you Zak!

I’m torn between a 338 Ultra and a DTSS338 for my DT SRS-A1. Anyone have thoughts on how the two compare?
