SOCOM300 is just way too heavy.

Narrowed my 300BO can search down to Explorr 300, SiCo Scythe Ti or OCL Hydrogen K.

Leaning Scythe Ti, but are they plan A mount compatible? Also worried about mag dumps damaging it

Are all 3 also rated for 9mm?

EDIT: The Scythe may be cutting it too close to fit under my Smoke Composites handguard

Unless I'm missing something, I don't think any of these are rated for 9mm. if you want to run 9mm, you need a can bored to handle the diameter of the round.

If you want to shoot 300BO and 9mm with no restrictions, I'd recommend the SiCo Omega 36M. I have one and it's fantastic. I've shot 300BO, 9mm, .38spl, and 5.56 through mine.

I have never heard a bad thing about the SiCo Omega 36M

Sound suppression is obviously paramount, but weight is a 1A factor. The 300BO barrel is 9" and will only be shooting subs. I have a 3 lug adapter on the barrel right now
This was a good read.

All of the .30 caliber suppressors ranked. BANISH came in 3rd.

Figured I'd ask. I'm running my Obsidian 9 on the 300BO right now.

I'm afraid what you're looking for doesn't exist then. I can't think of a narrow, lightweight can than can handle both calibers.

Since you already have an Obsidian 9, I'd just get a dedicated titanium can. Can't go wrong with SiCo or OCL's offerings.

I picked up an Echelon. Hopefully, I like it. If so, I'll slap a dot on it and get a threaded barrel to run suppressed. Will also probably pick up an FDE or ODG frame too.

Oooh. Let me know how the Flow works.

I got approved to buy 9 of the 556k flow cans and city council approved the cost but the big man still hasn't given me to go ahead to order them yet.

Same here, it's all want at this point lol

I don't have anymore 5.56 without a can at this point, but I would like a Spectre 9 to use with pistols & just leave the Obsidian 9 on the EP9 & get something new for my 8" 300BO. The Obsidian moves between the EP9 & 300BO right now.
