Do suppressors hide muzzle flash better than a flash hider, with sub and full power loads in .308
Also what powders produce less muzzle flash.
 
Re: suppressors good flash hider

I would not be at all surprised if a sound suppressor hid flash better than one of the best flash hiders (Be Meyers or Vortex) on a .308 after the first round.

It's going to depend on the make/ model. The higher performers (assuming no titanium blast baffle) will probably hide flash best.

If you want to increase the flash reduction with a suppressor, putting a teaspoon of water in the blast chamber and shaking it to coat the walls will probably beat any flash hider around.
