Any input on the “best” 1/2x28 to 5/8x24 adapter ?

It is exactly what I provided in #6.

Well then, pin a rose...

Solid idea!

But alas, didn't watch video.

I've run adapters since I got my first suppressor a decade ago, never had any issues with the 1/2 dozen or so I've purchased over the years from various vendors. If the barrel is too small in diameter to thread 5/8x24, then I just have it threaded 1/2x28 and use an adapter. I've not seen the need to add a bulbous head to the end of a rifle barrel for suppressor use.

I have a Weatherby Mark V Backcountry with a #1 barrel on it. Barely any shoulder even with 1/2-28x threads that came from the factory. I'm going to try to put a Rugged Alaskan 360 Ti on it using an SS adaptor.

I don't have high hopes because the barrel is so stupidly thin, so my concession was trying a 358 cal can instead of a 30 cal can for more clearance. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. Rifle weighs around 6.5lbs scoped, even a brake would look like a huge bulbous wart on the end of the pencil tube.

I just chopped a Kimber Montana 7 WSM to 19", and threaded it 1/2x28. There's plenty of shoulder for the adapter + can.

The suppressor appears to align, now it's time to shoot it.

Backed off to show the (lack of) shoulder.

I'm wanting to run my TBAC Ultra 7 on my Gunwerks 7SAUM. The rifle has a thin profile bbl so it's threaded 1/2x28. I don't like the idea of an adapter but short of sending it back to TBAC to change it out I don't have any options—and doing that would keep from being able to use it on my 5/8 rifles.

Any thoughts ?

Phalanx Tactical Precision has some pretty good ones. They are a prefect fit for my AR15 setup. They are cost effective. They also have some other adapters as well. Works great with my suppressor.

Hey if you're ever in the market for a good quality thread adapter, look up Phalanx Tactical Precision. they have quality adapters for a reasonable price. They also have thread protectors as well that have flats on them.
