Looking at getting my first suppressor. The guy at the LGS is pushing, for lack of a better word, me towards the OCL Hydrogen-L. This will mostly be on a 308 bolt gun and 300 blk AR, occasionally on an 18" 223 AR. I don't think I'm really concerned very much with weight or length. Smaller would be better of course but I don't want to sacrifice sound reduction. This will be mostly for hunting and plinking. I think I'm going direct thread and maybe get another adapter for the 1/2"x28. Is this a good option or should I look at others?
 
What’s your criteria and budget?

Steel, I like the Resonator. Titanium I like the Thunderbeast.

If he was pushing product, it’s a crap shoot whether he was being helpful or not. You don’t get nothing for free, so there won’t be a miracle can out there. Size matters most.
 
Yeah, I don't know if "pushing"was the right way to put it. He seemed to genuinely want to be helpful. I just wondered what the consensus was on this particular can and if I should look at something else.
 
I'm needing it to basically be a do-it-all can for hunting with 223 AR to 300 blk to 308 bolt gun. Weight/length isn't as important to me as sound reduction at this point
 
Holy crap, that's a lot of information. I haven't had time to do nothing but skim through it. I take it you're a fan of the thunderbeast?
 
I've come to the same conclusion. I really thought I wanted a QD mount but the more I learned, it seemed like unnecessary expense and hassle.
 
Deep dive is an understatement...lol. A lot of the science hippie stuff is lost on me but it seems like the hydrogen-L compares with some of the best rifle cans out there. Admittedly, I just kinda hit the high points of the report so I may have missed some info.
Anyway, thanks very much for sending the link.
 
I’m a huge fan of thunderbeast for precision setups. So for my hunting rigs I use TBAC cans

With that said Ottercreek seems to make some nice cans at affordable prices. I want to get a polonium or 2 for my ARs
 
I have the Hydrogen L and am very pleased with it . Sound reduction is great! It's been on a 28 Nosler, 6.5 PRC, 6mm ARC (both bolt and Ar15), 16" 5.56, 22 Creedmoor and a 204 Ruger. All of wish are completely hearing safe and comfortable to shoot without ear-pro. Quieter than 22lr. Recoil reduction is also great. Had I not gone with the Otter Creek, I was looking at the DeadAir Nomad Ti and the TBAC Ultra 7 or 9
