The DD Wave from Daniel Defense is just a few years old at this point, and it features a one-piece design thanks to 3D printing. It’s made from a nickel-based “superalloy,” titanium and stainless steel, and direct-thread and muzzle brake mounting options are available. We tested the former, and...
The SureFire SOCOM300-Ti is military tested and approved. As you already know, SureFire is a staple in the suppressor community, touting minimal POI shifts. The new “Ti” series brings lighter-weight suppressors more specifically geared toward precision rifles, and the SOCOM300-Ti is no different. In testing, it earned high marks...
The KGM Rogue 30 came in 10th place. This titanium suppressor is lightweight, rugged and looks pretty cool. It attaches via proprietary taper mount that attaches to the muzzle. Like the SureFire model, it earned good points for aesthetics and weight while also being relatively quiet to nearby shooters.
The Elite Iron Bravo suppressor is made by serious shooters and relies on a proven design. Consider this a tough, hard-use suppressor, and in testing, it earned a “5” in the dispersion category because it helped tighten up our groups downrange.
Advanced Armament Corp. (AAC) had the first cult-like following in the suppressor arena. The company made it cool to own a silencer, which brings us to the Jaeger 30, an aluminum and titanium design that’s light enough at 13.9 ounces for hunting. The construction works best with continuous, low-round-count...
Another new player, Leviathan Suppressors made a splash on the PRS scene with its .30-caliber Reaper, which is designed specifically to address felt recoil, adding a new dynamic to what shooters can expect. Our titanium test model earned high marks for its aesthetics, weight and sound ratings without producing...
The Dead Air Nomad-30 came in fifth place because it’s a tough, compact design that breaks from the norm, yet it’s built with the toughness that Dead Air is known for. Our test model attaches to the muzzle via the company’s E-Brake, which helps tame recoil on its own....
Sig Sauer’s direct-thread SRD762-Ti completely surprised us. It might be a bit long in the tooth by now, but it proved to be the second quietest at the range with zero POI shift. It continued to surprise us in the recoil department as well. Our opinions varied on the...
The CGS Group is a new player in the suppressor world, but it’s serious about its dedication. This was immediately evident with the Hyperion DT 762, which won our testing. It features a tubeless, circumferentially welded design that is extremely strong yet lightweight while providing a great deal of...
Thunder Beast Arms has been a top player in the precision rifle suppressor game for a long time now, and the Ultra 9 is lightweight, quiet and made to exacting tolerances. Honestly, this model is the standard against which all precision-focused suppressors should be measured. Indeed, the awesome Ultra...
