300blk SBR questions

[CJ]

The hand guard is manufactured by Samson for a company called 5.56 Tactical and the suppressor is a Ross Precision.

Same rail both me and Greg are using also.

And me. My muzzle clears the handguard though

I thought I had a picture of mine, but apparently I don't.

Wrap a sheet of paper around it when you screw it in, then pull it out. Most of the time the hand guard will be slightly off, depending on the type. Mine is slightly off so I just hold my can to once side when I screw it on and it never touches.

Wished I had thought about that beforehand, but the damage is down.

The ridges inside these hand guards are like razor blades. No matter how careful I tried threading the can on, it still left marks around the suppressor body. I noticed the play also while threading and did exactly as you just mentioned. To me it just seemed like the marks were getting worse and worse to point it is now showing bare metal on the suppressor body. It's like buying a new car and keying the shit out of it. Lol. Ugh.

I new I had to do something with the hand guard, so I took some sand paper bits with a Dremel to it and chewed through that soft aluminum. I was able to knock down the leading edges of the ribs inside and managed to flatten down the ridges to about the shoulder of the barrel, but not enough though. I need to get to a Lowes or Home Depot and look for larger sand paper bits. Might switch to a drill and completely flatten these ribs down.

My SBR with 8.5" barrel and ICE Arms compensator.

Ross Precision? Fuck yeah!

Sadly, I'm gonna have to face Chuck and tell him I fucked up one of his suppressors.

While he repaints it, might as well have him clean it too.

Good looking rifle moto. I have a Magpul stock like that, think its the slim, that I stuffed back in its box. Lol. Wasn't what I was really expecting. For a stock that suppose to be slim, just seems big and bulky. Guess I've grown used to their CTR stocks which have a more compact look and feel to them.

Checked out that Ice compensator and it looks just like a Flaming Pig, but that's where the similarities stopped. I was hoping it had the internal baffle as well.

Works great for what it is at half the weight and a third of the cost.

I agree and you forgot the crucial part of the Ice Comp, it's in stock unlike the Pig.

What are the specs of your rifle?

Ha, that too.


Palmetto State Armory lower.
CORE 15 Upper receiver
M16 bcg and Bravo Company gunfighter charging handle (best out there imo)
8.5" CMMG WASP 1:7 .300BLK barrel
9" Samson Evolution rail

Once school is paid for, I'll purchase a .30 cal suppressor. The compensator is staying on it until then. It's bare right now and it weighs just as much as my 16" AR15 with all the extra shit I have on it.

[bigmuskie]

Very nice.

Have you shot it yet with supers unsuppressed?

I put 100 150gr rounds through it about 3 weeks ago. Everything cycled nicely and the compensator did an excellent job of throwing the sound down range. I was quite surprised at what little recoil it had, not much more than a .223.

I like hearing that. My 300BLK barrel is also an 8.5, but with an 1:8 twist. It's a Rainer Arms Select.

The reason I was comparing the Ice Comp to the Flaming Pig is that I have a 10.5 5.56 that flat out refuses to strip another round while shooting loud. Throw a can on there and it runs great. Based off of that, I was under the assumption that the 300BLK would do the same and in order to fix it, I needed a Flaming Pig.

You should try some of my thunderous 147gr @ 2000fps. Those kick quite a bit more than .223.
