Hey I just wanted to get on here and put out an opinion on these cans. We got ours last week and I was actually able to go out today and shoot. These things are actually very impressive.
For a little backstory this was an Impulse Buy. They had it on sale and I just bought it. Didn't really know a whole lot about it. Naturally after I bought it I started looking up reviews. All the major reviewers and YouTubers seem to love it. But I must everything I read on forums was negative. Splash back on Big Bore rifles, normal cans are quieter, ect. So much negative information I started worrying about my purchase before I picked it up.
After getting some range time on an 11.5 556 and 6.75 300 blk mcx virtus. I can tell you these cans kick ass. It's hard to describe the way it throws the sound. The Echoes and Report seems louder then other cans i have. But the noise when I'm shooting, the first sound of the actual round going off is perceived to be much less. Especially with subsonic this was noticeable.
I will say they both were on different host. But we had a dead air Nomad and a OSS out today. The Nomad was on a Noveske ghetto blaster and the OSS on an mcx. With the same handloads the mcx was comfortable to shoot while then Noveske we both were getting noticeable ringing in our ears.
Maybe it was actually the combo of the Piston system with the OSS or maybe it was something else. At this point I have no desire to switch muzzle devices and find out. All in all a lot of negative information out there on these things, I don't think those people have ever shot one. I would definitely buy it again.
I will also say other than this OSS. Everything I own is from dead air. I like dead air suppressors a lot. The nomad has always been my favorite. At this point i think they are about tied. Only if I could get someone to make me a key MO with OSS threading
