Suppressors Surefire 7.62 Mini on 8" .300 Blackout

[jakhamr81]

I had a a chance to shoot the Surefire 7.62 Mini that I just got in to put on my .300 Blackout. The SF Mini is replacing the Gemtech HVT QD that I borrowed from my N6 AR10.

Without having any actual equipment to test the decibel reduction with; I am impressed. It is very close to being hearing safe with subsonic ammo. It seemed a little too loud on the range to shoot without ear pro; possibly because of the berms on three sides.

POI shift was pretty minimal (about one inch vertically) and repeated. I plan on shooting this suppressed 99% of the time anyways.

I would highly recommend the 7.62 mini for anyone looking for a short compact can for their Blackout rifle.

Weight is 1 lb .5 oz
Length is 6.25 in
Diameter is 1.5 in

How is the suppression on the mini compared to a full size?

Looks good. I've just picked up my Mini Brevis, but haven't shot it yet.

When shooting supersonic rounds I could not tell a difference, likely because I was behind the gun. As I mentioned, when shooting supersonic rounds, it was just a little too loud to shoot without ear pro. My full size HVT seemed to be hearing safe.

I'm sorry to say that I haven't. Been busy at work, but will take it with me on a hunting trip next weekend and will try it on the Grendel and 16" 300/221. The sbr will have to wait till I get back home as I don't have the paperwork to travel with it yet.

I keep going back between the mini and the full size 7.62. Its mainly for my 18 7.62 and sbr 300.

It is sweet when the can is same length as the barrel

I, personally, would not go with a mini on any rifle I have set up to shoot subs. If im going to run only subs, im going to get the quietest can possible to maximize my outcome. That being said, the mini is a sweet piece of equipment.
