Never owned a can.  I found these AB suppressors.  For hunting I was thinking a 6 segment Raptor.

Their site only has one dealer in the area.

That just shows what dealer(s) buy them direct. It doesn't show what distributors other dealers can get them from.

Noted.  So can you get AB and be competitive?

I'm thinking 6 segment.  For a 20" WSM I don't own yet (Trying to keep OAL down while at least providing SOME attenuation) with reflex mount and direct thread to 300 BO AR pistol.
I can get her AB silencers from my distributors. I don't pursue competing with anyone.

I've only got one can thus far but it's an AB Raptor 8 and I freaking love it. I run it direct thread on my 300 Win Mag and my 6.5 Creedmoor. It's quiet and greatly reduces recoil. I'm shooting 1/2 - 3/4 MOA with my 300 with it installed. I would not hesitate to buy another Raptor or give the A-10 a chance as soon as I'm ready to buy another.
Very much love my Raptor 8.  Next can will be a dedicated .223 can for my .223 trainer and the a-10 is definitely gonna be it.  Shot one this last weekend on a .204 and was pleased with how it performed.

Did you shoot the A-10 5.56 model? Working on an A-10 7.62 right now. Looking for a DD Wolf Hunter as my dedicated .223 can. The A-10 7.62 will probably sit on my ultralight, gasless AR.

Wish they had tested both versions of the A-10 on the same platform in the TBAC Silencer Summit. They only tested the 5.56 version on a gassed AR.

I put a sico harvester evo (cant get them anymore) on my 7mm mag, even shooting with out ear muffs is amazing. That is just over 6".  A scythe ti would be awesome as well, only a few ounces lighter.

Sucks that you can no longer buy additional end caps for the AB's (assuming that's industry wide?), lessens the versatility a bit but they're still a sweet can
