Paper Hunter
Time to quiet the Prairie Dog rig
I have a real great shooting Savage 12 BVSS 204 that is my go to for pd's. I primarily run the 32gr Hornady Vmax at about 4100 ft per sec velocity. On a really good day it'll shoot in the 3's. I'd like to quiet it down so all the guys that I shoot with that have suppressors will quit complaining. Don't see much info on this specific setup. Not sure of the impact of a can for a 32gr bullet at these velocities on accuracy. We virtually never shoot inside of 300 yds and reach out farther than most would believe so I'm really concerned about accuracy impacts.
Priorities:
Accuracy
POI shift - Not overly concerned because well they're PD's. I'll adjust as needed (if I miss the first one there's always more).
Weight - I shoot from a bench so doesn't matter much.
Sound - They all still make noise. All the major cans I've looked at seem close enough.
Cost - i don't really want to make this a factor in selection.
mount type - QD or thread I don't really know which would be best.
Multi-cal - some have recommended going with a 7.62 can. Don't really have a 30 cal to suppress today but i'd consider it.
I do have an 11.5 SBR. Don't really shoot it, guess I got it for the CDI factor. Would like to be able to mount it on this, to increase CDI at times. It really may turn into my house gun and if so I'd probably keep the can on it when not out PD'ing.
Ideas - anyone using a can on a 204? Anything unique about it?
