I'm currently working on a spreadsheet to compare the different lengths, weights, attachment methods, and suppression ratings of most of the mainstream suppressors. Maybe I didn't convey to the guys at WCA my intended use very well but they recommended the heaviest and most expensive suppressor I've logged so far  :chuckle:

Haven't really narrowed it down much but the TBAC Ultra 7, Banish 30, Dead Air Nomad TI, Harvester EVO, and CGS Hyperion K are still in the running.

The Harvester is ~40% cheaper than most of the others....wonder why

My first thought is the cost of materials. Thunder Beast is all titanium. Nomad Ti is mostly titanium. Harvester Evo is other materials.

I’m loving the Thunderbeast Ultra 7! It’s worth every penny. I’ve shot two deer with it this season and my wife one, this first year hunting with it. I hardly notice it on the end of my 300wsm.

Suppressors in the 1.5 inch diameter category the TBAC Ultra 7 and 9 are the top dogs.  Another really awesome can, if you don't mind a little bit larger diameter suppressor, is the Dead Air Nomad LT.  The DA Nomad LT is 1.7 diameter, 8.4 inches long and 12.6oz so it's the same diameter as the Nomad Ti but a little longer and a couple ounces heavier but the Nomad LT is worth the extra length and weight over the DA Nomad Ti.

I got a Banish30 a few months ago and it's a decent can running it at 9 inches but I think it sucks in its 7 inch configuration and not in the same league as the TBAC Gen2 Ultra's and definitely not compared to the DA Nomad LT.

Nomad Ti shoots pretty good depending on what it’s on. It’s great on my 6.8 SPC and .308. Not great on my 300WM

According to Silencer shop and Capital Armory there is zero difference in accuracy between any of the top suppressors. This was my question with speaking with them about the 3 I am considering. Tbac Ultra 7 (according to them and alot of guys on other sites like Snipers Hide they are the only marketed suppressor that pushes the MOST ACCURATE SUPPRESSOR side even though it's a non issue) another of my 3 is the CGS Helios qd ti and the Dead Air Nomad Ti. The Nomad-Ti is quieter than a TBac ultra 7, shorter and also lighter.
I know all 3 are excellent suppressors and I'm sure I will be happy with whatever route I go. But it's hard to justify the extra cost in the Helios or the Tbac over the Nomad-Ti considering the specs. Shorter, quieter and cheaper. Again according to several sources the (Most accurate claim is a thing of the past)

Regarding outside diameter, does the 1.75" show up in your scope much more significantly than the 1.5" OD cans? Like, to the point of needing taller rings?

I wondered the same. Really was thinking that would be an issue with the Tbac Dominus

I've messed around shooting my 338 can on my 17 WSM and the scope on that is pretty low, can't say that I've noticed that big ole can on it through the scope at all.

I believe you that they all told you that. I also believe they are misleading people by making such statements.  I spent a lot of time and money chasing down accuracy.  Different cans, different loads, and different mounting options all make a difference.  I have to make more videos to show comparisons after the hunting seasons are over with but, I can tell you for sure that they aren't all the same when it comes to how a firearms react to adding yet another accessory.

More silencers have been added to the promotions.

If you're in the market for Thunder Beast silencers, I can get you those as well.
