I recently e-mailed Hansohn Bros to inquire about a comparison of identical suppressors with different bores I read that they were doing, and was given these two links in the following reply:
“Yes, you can see the results here https://youtu.be/3y87pu6wMYE and here https://youtu.be/jFkhg6TiTss
The Rex Silentium Viribus silencers are identical except for bore size.
Thank you

I was asking because Rex Silentium will make a can in whatever length and whatever bore diameter one desires, not just .224 or .308. So I’ve been thinking about trying something oddball, like .284, because I’m an oddball.
In the videos above comparing .224 vs .338, it appears that there is no difference in at ear numbers, but a large difference in muzzle numbers. I’m sure the .338 was way less gassy. I would be curious how the numbers (particularly at ear) would look on two different rifles with gas adjusted for the individual cans. Perhaps they would still be about the same, perhaps not.
Anyways, I think most members here will find no surprises in these videos, but I thought y’all might find it interesting all the same. It is the only comparison with a meter that I am aware of using two cans of identical size and design with different bore sizes.
Merry Christmas, or Hanukah, or Kwanzaa, or Pagan Tree Festival, or whatever you celebrate! Stay safe, don’t drink and drive. That eggnogg is stronger than you think.
