I am looking to get a colt 901 and put either a war comp or brake on it, and also considering a surefire flash hider to put on my faxon ARAK for 300 blackout. Does anyone have experience with both cans? I have another rifle build and a pistol build that will both be getting war comps so I'm looking for a jack of all trades can to share between some 556 guns, a 300 blackout shooting supers, and a 16 inch 308.
I have a SOCOM762-RC, SOCOM556-RC, and will have my 300 SPS approved in about 2-4 weeks.
I have never used the 762-mini, but can tell you from experience that the larger 762-RC is terrible with 300blk subs. It was not designed around the lower pressure curve. The 762-RC does sound really good with full power 308 and 300WM. I use the 556-RC on a 11.5" 5.56 AR, and that sounds pretty good. The 762-mini will obviously be a little louder due to the larger bore, but the external dimensions are the same.
The 300SPS was designed specifically for 300blk and would be the better choice IMH0 if shooting subs.
If you are going to be shooting the 308 and 300blk more often I would go 300 SPS. If OAL is more important, and you shoot 5.56 more often, then go mini.
ETA: I voted mini, due to the fact you only mention 300blk supers.
