To triple down here, it’s extremely effective and very helpful, for both you whoever you are shooting with. It will help you stay in the glass to see your impact, provide follow up shots, and, as Jeremy said, you’ll hear the very clear and definitive “thump” of the round striking the animal. Folks not hunting suppressed don’t have any idea what they are missing.

Oh man, yes, what Dan said. Zero blast or concussion after adding the suppressor, less than half the recoil, very often a slight improvement in accuracy, maybe 2% higher velocity, plus a reduction in sound level down to where it shouldn’t be doing any hearing damage and is quite comfortable. In addition to all that, because of how much quieter the gunshot is and the fact that you aren’t wearing hearing protection, when you’re hunting you can very clearly hear the impact of the bullet on the animal and you can tell right away whether you made a solid shot or not. If you aren’t shooting from a position/distance where you can see the impact, being able to hear it and knowing what a solid shoulder/chest hit sounds like versus a gut shot or a glancing hit, etc, is super dang handy. You’ll often know before you’ve even recovered from the recoil whether you need to hustle for a follow up shot or if your shot landed where you wanted it to.

They’re very effective. It varies by caliber, but on a bolt gun like the CROSS SAWTOOTH, a suppressor (I think Jeremy’s using a SilencerCo Scythe-Ti here) drops the sound of the gunshot down into the low to mid 130s dB range. That’s not “silent,” of course, but it’s MUCH quieter than shooting without a can and it’s below the 140 dB range where permanent hearing loss happens.

Another big benefit of a can aside from the sound reduction is less felt recoil. That alone would be enough for a lot of shooters to use a can even if they didn’t get the noise under hearing damage levels.

🤣

I already have one of these in 7 PRC … its a very nice rifle and worth the money.
