    Default New Suppressor

    Wow is it great to own a suppressor. I just got my first .223 Yankee hill phantom. For those who are on the fence about suppressors, it is definitely worth it. I am running mine on all bolt action .17, .22, and .223. It is a pleasure to shoot. All you hear is the crack of the bullet and the smack of it hitting whatever your shooting at. Definitely hearing safe even with full power.223 in an open area.

    Glad to hear that you are enjoying your new can. BTW cans are like potato chips, once you start...you can't stop!

    Yes, you can never have too many 22 cans either.
    Next thing you know, every weapon you own that can be threaded will be. Or you will know a place to get a threaded replacement barrel.

    .....cans are a gateway drug.
    you've been warned

    From what I've been told you definitely want a rimfire can because .22LR can fill up a .223 can with lead and fouling that you can't get out and it'll shorten the effective life thereof.

    Nice can! I agree with the others that a .22 can should be next on the list. You wouldn't beleive how quiet they can get, especially with subsonic ammo.

    Oh yea, mind I ask whats the hammer for?

    I see they changed the outside appearance of their cans. Mine came into my dealer in February this year and I picked it up in early May. Mine is just the classis smooth tube. Is your stainless? Mine is the Stainless 556 Phantom. They are great for the money. I can't complain any for under $500 delivered. Mine is the threaded version.

    If you notice one of the rifles is sitting in a bench rest. Most of the quality bench rest have three adjustment screws used for leveling and securing the base. The tips of the adjusting screws are machined with a sharp point and you use the hammer to hit the top of the adjusting screws downward into the bench so the base does not slide around.

    Maybe he has a Nagant sitting out of frame and is tired of kick starting it?
