I now have 3 Huntertown Arms suppressors on order. I ordered the Gaurdian 22 SS for 22 rimfire, Kestrel 5.56, and the Kestrel 308. Now my wait has strarted. These cans can all be taken apart, and after having been shopping suppressors for the last several months I thought the prices were very fair. Don't see much on these but I will post in a LONG time how they perform. Hoping to have them by first of yr/ krw

I've got a Guardian 22...been very pleased with it so far, but its my first can and have nothing to compare it to.
Local shop has offered me a good deal on a Kestrel 308, but I'm hesitating because I haven't seen any feedback in accuracy...

I really want their new 10/22 integrated barrel, once they come out with one for the takedown I'll get one on order. My buddy has a few of them and loves em. Cant beat them for the price.
I have 3 of the HTA cans 2 of the 5.56 and the 308 and I can’t say enough good about them!
I have heard you don’t’ need to clean center fire cans, well after looking at one of my 5.56 cans after 1000 rounds I cleaned it and do it every 500 rounds now, soak it in ATF overnight and brush off with wire brush.
The things I like about the HTA cans are, you can take it apart and you can restack the baffles, any strikes on baffles and you just send the baffle back not the entire can for a new one, just as quite as any can, I really like the ability to change the thread pattern , just put my 308 can on my 223 and shot it side by side with a 5.56 can and could not tell the difference. Oh and the price is ½ of the cost of other cans that you can’t take apart or need adapters for.
I have had no POI shift on my guns and only have seen one shift more than 2” at 100 yards and that gun had a funky muzzle break on it. On an old colt 16” pencil barrel car-15, I shot a 3 shot 100 yard 3/8 inch group with black hills 77gr, and 5 shot that went under and inch. that is now my go to coyote gun.
Waiting on a new barrel for my 243 for the 308 can, then the hogs will pay at 3-500 yards

hogs taken with HTA can and M845 SHP Gen2 60 gr V-Max one hog ran towards us not knowing where the shot came from

I cant speak for the accuracy yet on the 308 suppressor, but we do have one and it seems well made. I have been shooting the life out of one of their aluminum guardian 22 cans on a full auto, and it does a great job. Handles the heat well, sounds good, accurate, cheap, and easy to clean. I have an Element 2 on hand to compare it with. To me, the Element 2 is quieter, when using them side by side. However, most people cant tell the difference.
I have a Guardian .22 on order, the aluminum one. I figured for the money I couldn't go wrong. Hopefully I will have the stamp by the 1st of June and will get to try it out soon.Have heard nothing but good things about them. I am also interested in seeing some more range reports on the .308 can, been kicking around the idea of buying one of those as well to use on a 300 BLK and 5.56 AR.
0311@lar,
if I remember right they have or will have a 7.62 can for AK's that just might be the ticket for a 300 Blkout or your 5.56 my 308 can is 1.3/4 longer than my 5.56 can and adds a little more weight

30 cal HTA can on 6.8 I was over 500 yards away in another blind when she made the shot at 1:am and the hit sounded louder than the shot, accuracy is good no effect or poi shift
