Curious to get some thoughts on what suppressor people would choose for my application.
Long story short, I bought a titanium suppressor many years ago from Crux, but wasn't able to receive it close to ATF's approval due to having to relocate out of the country for work. When I came back to the US, Crux was under new ownership, and was going to work with me to get my suppressor. They've recently gone dark on comms, I'm assuming at this point the titanium suppressor that I've paid for will never be in my possession. Now I'm looking for a new suppressor.
Here are some of my objectives/nice to haves:
- Main goal is for precision rifles, and will work on cartridges from 6BRA to .300NM
- Bonus if it works on ar15's and has the "standard" 1-3/8x24 - not a requirement, as I have a SiCo Omega that fills this role. However, if the wife and I wanted to both shoot suppressed ar15's, it would be nice to each have a suppressor to fill this role. This would not happen often.
- Having a good recoil impulse would be an appreciated feature - I know some of the newer suppressors are designed with this in mind
- Doesn't hinder precision - designed with precision in mind
- Repeatability
- Pretty new to the suppressor game, so I haven't really developed a strong preference in regards to whether I would prefer for the can to be more portable, or if I would want ultimate sound suppression. Perhaps something in the middle?
- Not being too heavy would be nice
- Budget ~$1000 or less. I don't have the fiscal flexibility that I once did, and it hurts that I already have around ~$900 sunk into another suppressor that I will most likely never see.
- 5/8x24 direct thread mounting.
Right now, the Abel Company Biscuit seems really intriguing and checks some of the boxes. Not sure if there are other suppressors that fill a similar role that I should be looking at as well. Curious to hear what others are using for a similar application.
