Going to make a more compact moderator, probably with multiple thread adapters.

Here is the start of a monoblock baffle assembly. [316 Stainless - pig to machine]




Wonder how many milling cutters I will get through...


:cens:

How you're just being mean.

Looking forward to seeing the process. I appreciate the extra work it is to photograph and work.

Mean, how so?


Bit more 'chewin'.

Down to 200 grams - 7 oz

All up 455grams, 160mm long.



Not bad so far compared to the T8 - 680grams and 100mm shorter, will play more tomorrow...

400 grams, time for TIG, will go and see friend got no gas!


55 grams just from this end cap!

Picked it up this morning, welding could have been a little better, hey ho, you want a job doing well - do it yourself...

Alignment looks good, mebbe test it this weekend, need some squizzers. [Squirrels]

On the paint jig;








All Stainless moderator so a lick of matt black will do for crashing around in the woods - easy to fix!

Looks perfect. Can't wait for the range report.

Took a picture this morning, will probably test it tomorrow.

Interested in hearing what it sounds like compared to commercial version.

Not expecting the performance to match the T8, just need enough attenuation to help save my ears and have the rifle 'handle' better.

Well, it works well, plenty of attenuation for hunting in fact usable for targets without problems!

There ya go! I REALLY wish you could send those "things" to us over here.

Paul

Had to do a little job for jaeger so thought - 'how about do the 270 mod while I'm at it'...




...

A new one?
