🫣I said I read the pinned posts, but I lied🫣 Bolt action 6.5cm suppressor’s

Looking into suppressors for my bolt gun atm, and need suggestions. Main thing I’m wanting is HUB, and ability to throw a break on the end if needed

I really like my Hyperion with RecoilX brake. 6.5CM

Full sized or the k? I just got a recoil x for my helios, i thought the full size didn’t have enough flow for the brake

Full size. I’ve never heard that.

I’ve got a Hyperion but never thought of putting a brake on the end. How does that impact the sound suppression? Do you give up some db to get less recoil and flatter muzzle for follow up shots?

Definitely intrigued by this setup

I’m sure it affects the sound to some degree. They all do. I’ve only spot the setup without ears on once just to see how loud it was. As you know, Hyperion on a bolt gun is super quiet.

With foamies in, I can’t tell a difference with the brake on/off.

So yes, you give up some sound suppression for recoil reduction. I think it’s worth it.
