300 Blackout SureFire Suppressor

Should I get the SOCOM300-SPS, or should I get one of there 7.62 suppressors? On their website, they claim the SOCOM300-SPS was made to be ideal for subsonic ammunition. What if I want to shoot supersonic primarily? I have a SureFire WARCOMP installed on my 300 blackout upper.

      I'd get a proper general 30cal anon. Well I mean, I did indeed get 30cal cans, and use them for 308 as well, but that's the choice I'd recommend for you too. Cans are a big wait and being able to use them for supers and subs across the whole range is well worth it. The only real thing is that if you know you'll mostly use it for 300bo, you can slightly bump size/weight as factors if you want. Ie, don't get something like the Hyperion, which performs very well but is very long (9.5"), overkill for 300bo and also there is lots of other stuff that performs 99% as well. Something more in the 8" range will do really well for 300bo and also be excellent for any other 30cal round and there are lots of interesting ones there.

      So Enticer-L Ti, Banish 30 Gold, Q Full Nelson, Hydrogen-L, SRD762Ti would all be good picks.

      Actually no, the HX-QD is quite shit for 300bo. Maybe when they get their "Flow 762k" out or whatever they will call it, but right now while they produce the best 5.56 can they haven't yet released a 30cal can with the same tech, only older ones.

        I'm definitely going to get the SOCOM300-SPS. It has superior sound attenuation to the SOCOM762 RC2 when fired through the same 7.62 NATO / .308 rifle using supersonic ammunition.

                The first section of the warcomp is a compensator, which is essentially a directed muzzle break, and the second section is a three prong flash hider. They're really clever with the compensator section with their gas port profiles that minimize flash. The compensator portion might make it slightly louder, but I haven't noticed any major difference.

          The SPS and regular SOCOM are a trade-off between muzzle suppression and back pressure. If the SPS is designed for subsonic 300 blackout, back pressure is likely to be extreme when shooting 7.62 NATO (although possibly in line with some of the commercial cans).

          If you’re primarily shooting supersonic it probably is a better idea to get a can designed for lower back pressure with 7.62 like the SOCOM or (much better) HUXWRX.

            I plan on building another lower when Black Friday comes around again. I would place an H3 buffer in that one for the 300 blackout upper with a suppressor. This would also be a select fire lower that would be firing in full auto. Would that work for full auto supersonic 300 blackout with a SOCOM300-SPS? Those HUXWRX suppressors also look really cool. Are they permanently installed? I might build a 300 blackout upper with a 5-inch micro barrel with a handguard that goes over the suppressor with one of those in the future. With HUXWRX suppressor would be best for a 5-inch micro barrel, or would such a short barrel be a stupid idea? Maybe it would work for a larger caliber like 458 SOCOM, but I can't find any 458 SOCOM micro barrels.

    762RC2 is good for multi cal use and general 762 use. 300SPS is bolt use and even then has a sound signature that differs from them both. If you really want top quality top notch go with the 762RC2 Ti. That's the real bang for your buck but you probably won't put your CAN through most of the stuff it's intended for anyways so 300SPS works.

    I own the Socom 762 RC2. No one in this thread understands what they are talking about. Buy the 300 sps you will get much better decibel reduction which is what your going for. It can handle much higher pressure rounds just know it will have more back pressure compared to the 762. Also I would go with a normal 3 prong or muzzle break as they have the labyrinth seals which will be quitter at the ear and reduce carbon locking.

          My upper has a 7-inch barrel, and having a suppressor that adds only 6.4 inches as opposed to 7.9 inches with the SOCOM300 SPS would keep the gun more as a PDW. After the end of the muzzle device, the SOCOM762 MINI2 only adds 3.8 inches, as opposed to 5.4 inches. I want this to remain a tactical PDW on the larger size. I plan on getting an actual PDW, a P90, in the future.

              Basically a larger PDW, since PDWs like the P90, MP7, and Skorpion are fairly small, especially the Skorpion. The Skorpion is basically a smaller PDW.

              I ordered a 7-inch upper from BCM, even though their most popular length is 9-inches. The 7-inch upper also comes with a handguard that you can't buy individually from them, the MCMR-5.
              >two inches literally doesn't matter
              It does when you're trying to add up length avoided. Using a barrel that's 2 inches shorter with a suppressor that's 1.5 inches shorter means I save 3.5 inches. The total length of the barrel with the suppressor comes out to be 13.4 inches, which is around three inches shorter than a typical 14.5-inch upper with a muzzle device.

                I don't see the issue. The supersonic bullets that come out of it still impact like typical rifle bullets. My 7-inch 300 blackout barrel upper firing supersonic ammo has around the same muzzle energy as a 10.5-inch 5.56 barrel upper firing M855. It might actually have more, though, due to the much greater rotational kinetic energy. Larger bullets have better performance going through shorter barrels.

            It however doesnt restrict you from shooting supers. If size is more important than sound performance you have the right idea.

              I wish they listed subsonic and supersonic performance with 300 blackout for the SOCOM762 RC2, because then we would get a better idea as to which platform delivers superior sound attenuation for supersonic 300 blackout. Anyway, I believe the smaller suppressor would be nice. It would definitely help with my hearing, and I'm certain subsonic 300 blackout would still be hearing safe without any hearing protection, but I'd need to get a meter to know for certain. I can handle a bit more sound volume, since I don't have any hearing bones in my right ear, which gives me a 60 decibel reduction in that ear, and I'm right-handed. However, I still need to wear hearing protection when shooting my AR with a crazy muzzle brake on it that vents the gasses backwards towards the shooter, because I get a bit of physical pain from my right eardrum getting pushed in so far.

                I want the gun to be as short as possible, and if it still fires subsonic rounds below 130 decibels, then it's perfectly hearing safe. I'd need to get a decibel meter to measure that, though, but I'm pretty sure it would be below 130.

                The length of the sound also matters, but fraction of a second sound bursts below 130 decibels are considered hearing safe. Those between 130 and 140 are considered hearing safe if they are only heard once every 24 hours.

                CGS says full auto is fine though to try to keep temp <800F. That's probably going to be about 50 rounds in a burst before a bit of cooldown time. Sure if you're just dumping and dumping you should go with steel, but are you actually doing that with 30cal? Not in the stupid bullshit you've described in this or your other thread (lol 5" 300bo mg that you're making from scratch and you refused to ever explain how you were dealing with the NFA on that).

                It's fine on semiauto all day honestly. I don't need to baby it. I'm never mag dumping 308 on the range, and if it was home defense even 10 rounds would be plenty.

    Last year I made the decision to trust my life on the street to Second Chance body armor. I got the level IIa because it stops the most rounds. plus I got the Trauma Plate for the front.

    What scares me is that, although I can fit an extra trauma plate in the front, I cannot fit a second one in back. As of late I have taken to duct-taping a second trauma plate to the area of my back where the heart and vital organs are located. Then I put my vest on.

    Here is the questions. The ducttape solution, although tactically sound, is hot and painful to remove. I would like to go to the single-plate solution in back. What I am worried about is repeated hits to that area with .308 ammunition. I have a high-risk security job and I fear that I would be the target for repeated long-distance shots to my back.

    Are any of you aware of a thicker plate that could stop, say, .338 Lapua or something like that? Is there a better way to do the second plate?
