222 silencer's ?

[Guest ragumup]

what would be best ,quietest , cheapest, and shortest silencer for 222 many thanks ?

the new ase cqbs would work very well on 222 it covers most of the above apart from price !

Asking that question will yield at least three different answers. The "best" moderator (NOT silencer, you can't silence a supersonic round!) is unlikely to be the cheapest, and again is unlikely to be the shortest (though it might be the quietest, if that's your description of "best")

 

You could use a parker hale rimfire moderator. I can't see it being very effective, nor lasting very long, but it would be short and cheap.

 

Any moderator can only reduce the noise from expanding gases. You will still get the supersonic crack from a .222, so the amount of noise reduction is limited. The ASE mods are well spoken of, but there are many others at varying price levels that might do the job just as well.

Thanks for helping Jamie g and not lecturing me like some i thought about the jet or the t4 ? just off to check out the ase cqbs,

I'm back 300 notes your right it not cheap second hand t8 for 50 notes sound good but they seem to rust and fall to bits if not looked after, something i'm not good at (the next bullet will clean it lol)

Sorry to jump on someone else's thread but I just bought a .204 with an ace ultra mod. the mod is a .30 cal. The rifle is louder than my 22-250 is this because the diameter of the hole is so large. The shop only stock .30 so I phoned and they said they'd see if they could get a .22 mod. Have I done the right thing?

yes mate definitely the right thing the hole diameter makes a massive difference to the effectiveness of the mod

Cheers danw I was just thinking about my .22lr mod which looks like a thick pen. I didn't want to be palmed off with something like that!

I would look at the T4 AR (on my old .222 had one that lasted 6 years)or the new roedale precision mod I have a cqb on my .222 at the moment it is good but has rusted after only 6 months of use

What do you think of the stainless mods?

I have a S5 stainless mod on my 2506 and it is very good possibly not as quiet as others but short and totally maintenance free

im surprised its started to rust after 6 months mate the cqb. I have had one over 3 years and its spotless still. i would send it back to Jackson rifles and get them to replace it. if it was me

Danw, that was the selling factor for me-maintenance free! I just fired 20 rds through it and it doesn't seem as loud now Im used to it. The 40g were not grouping like my 22-250 at 100 yrds though so Im a bit dissapointed!
