What suppressors do you guys like?

I have a gemtech tracker. Wouldn't do it again.
too heavy, too temperamental with heat, has terrible minimum barrel lengths. I have reached out to gemtech multiple times with questions and have not been thrilled with their answers or their professionalism.
 
I have a few SiCo's and then I have some from CGS. The SiCo's do the job well enough, but the ones from CGS do an AMAZING job! Side by side comparisons are like night and day. My CGS hyperion is probably the best can I own, and it with .308 subs, I can hear my firing pin hit.
 
Just ordered my fourth TBAC.

TBAC Ultra 9 .308
TBAC Ultra 7 6.5mm
TBAC Dominus .308

New TBAC Ultra 7 Gen 2 6.5mm

My first Ultra 7 was in 6.5mm, becuase I had read they suppressed better than a .308 can on a 6.5mm and down. My ,308 Ultra 9 and Dominus suppress just fine on everything from 223 to .300PRC and everything in between.

So, I am keeping both Ultra 7s as 6.5mm, so I don't ever screw up and thread a 6.5mm can on a 7mm or bigger...otherwise, I would have done everything in .308. Plus, I have WAY more rifles 6.5mm and down than I do 7mm and up.
 
I also just ordered my 4th tbac can

ultra 5 .30 gen 1
ultra 7 .30 gen 2
ultra 9 6.5 gen 2

and now the newest big boy
magnus-.30

I can say I like having a dedicated 6.5 can i do think its almost holly wood quiet, but the 30s are more versatile. I did a different color on mine to help me keep it separate the 6.5 ultra 9 is FDE the rest are standard gray.
 
I have a 6.5 CM out of a 24 inch barrel. I want to hunt predator from a blind. What can will give me enough sound reduction that I don't need hearing protection?
Pretty much anything popular. SilencerCo Omega, Scythe, Hybrid, Harvester. TBAC Ultra 5, 7, 9, Magnus. Banish 30.

I do like AB Suppressors Raptor with the reflex that goes rearward over the barrel. More volume with no more length.

I've used all of those, they all work fine. SiCo Scythe seems to be very the popular at the moment.
 
I have a Bergara HMR Pro in 6.5CM. What can works best on something like that? I just want to be able to shoot without hearing protection. It gets in the way of the hat I wear and sometimes the recoil knock them out of my ears.
What I worry about is weight of the can on the end of the barrel possibly affecting the accuracy. Its a floated barrel. (On a different rifle I put camo wrap on it and just that camo wrap changed my zero by 2 MOA).
So I'm interested in something that won't affect accuracy but will still dampen sound enough to not be ear damaging.
So should I go with something lighter in weight? Seems like steel would put a lot of weight at the end of the barrel.
Also I don't know how weight at the end of a barrel can change the dynamics of barrel whip if there is any.
Any ideas?

Just get a 30 cal can and pay attention to the weight. My Ultra 7 did change the POI by a bit, but once you shoot with it, you'll always shoot with it.
