        So............ how do you decide between, say, the 5" and the 7" one...
        Silencers are new territory to me. Wouldn't plan on it for my 308 but maybe for one or 2 of my 6.5-ers...

          According to tbac, the 7" will be quieter. The advantage of the 5" is basically 2" and a couple ounces at the cost of a couple decibels.

            I have a TBAC 5”, been using one for a while now on both SA bolt guns, various SBR’s in 300 blk and 6.8, and a Larue 18”. Suppression is good enough to make shooting it tolerable without hearing protection, and it is an absolute joy to carry around. If I had it to do all over again, I would have just bought 2 or 3 TBAC 5” cane and been done with it. I have absolutely no use for my regular 7” can, which is not even a heavy one. It’s just not as small and light as the TBAC.

                  Top of the TBAC page and click on products, then the one you want.

                  THE DEAL - 10% off the price of any TBAC silencer(s) to end-users. This means a "10% of MSRP" discount off the amount charged by your dealer.

                  Call your LGS and see what they charge.

                    I am running the 7 Ultra .30 caliber can on my Grendel and .300 AAC.

                    The thing is a work of art!

                          I have been running it on a .300 AAC with sub and super loads as well as supers on the Grendel.

                          Repeat ability is amazing . . . take a shot, take it off, put it back on, take another shot, etc and the bullets just keep going to the same point of impact.

                          I have shot some freakishly small groups with it. Everything I shoot is hearing safe and I have called in fox right after a taking a shot with supers.

                          The mounting system is awesome and the can is so light.

                          I would stick with the .30 cal can for the Grendel. You will gain a couple of DB's over the 6.5 model, but you will loose back pressure and it will run a little cleaner. That and you will have a built in excuse to build a .300 AAC.

                            Agree with everything you said except this. There is nothing 'hearing safe' about high-power centrefire suppressed at around 135db. It's just quieter than without a suppressor. Be careful of your hearing or you will regret it later in life. I use muffs when using suppressors. We used them every day in the military and always wore ears, sometimes double-ears. Hearing damage is a cumulative thing but it can also be caused by a single loud impulse. I know you are impressed with your suppressor but wishful thinking is a poor substitute for physics and physiology.

                              Klem,

                              Thank you for the correction. Didn't mean to spread bad info.
