Does that .17 HMR really have that much report from the barrel where you would hear a significant difference using a suppressor? I've never heard one before.
Where you using an SWR Specter?

i was using the specter, AWSOME can.
it does make alot of difference.
last month i took my father in law out shooting dogs and he has a 17 hmr
every time he shot the dogs would run and hide.
i took out three dogs on the same hole with three shots and they did not move.
it drops the noise down just below a normal 22 lr
Nice shooting... sweet .17 with the can.
Its just a flesh wound...
get back here and fight like a man!

Where did you get your barrel threaded at? I've got the same set up and want to put my newly acquired spectre on it for punching dogs!
Man I miss that sport. But can you really call it hunting? Maybe to find a town but.......I'm just sayin'.
got it threaded at iron ridge arms in longmont
I have a .17 Remington upper that I can't wait to try out, and this just makes me want to take it out more.
It does remind me of the time I took a shot at a sodrat at about 100 yards, with a 7mm Rem Mag, and connected. Sucked the little bugger right up out of the hole (at least, his bottom half....all that was left of him) and flung him about 25 feet downrange. I wish I'd have a video camera going!
