steve_b_wales Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 I have a Reflex T8 on my .243 & .308. Excellent quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Ase or a Pred 8 compact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maidment78 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 I have the PES on my T3 Hunter .243 and love it, slim so I can use low mounts, and does not mess up the balance of the gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooter Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Either a P8 or a DM80. Both fully strippable for cleaning. With the P8 you can buy separate calibre specific inserts which could be useful if you own more rifles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 A-Tec Maxim from Jackson rifles.Only weighs 13oz,you can extend or shorten the length by adding or removing baffles,only adds 5.5 inches to the length of the barrel and is very quiet.About £250. They are 'practically' maintenance free,according to their blurb,but time will tell no doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devon Fox Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 I have a Reflex T8 on my .243 & .308. Excellent quality. I am with Steve. I have a T8 reflex on My T3 243, works a treat, You will no doubt get a post or two saying they rust,split, can't clean blahh blahh. The truth is, if You look after them they are fine, a good squirt of WD and left to soak then drain is as technical as You need to be You can spend more, can buy prettier,but the effect is pretty much the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Hi Not unlike many things in shooting/hunting (scopes, lights, clothing, bullets etc) this will be one of those marmite/individuals choice/experience based things that are not easy to reconcile/make a decision ............ You might want to also peruse/consider the Third Eye Tactical Spartan - I havent tried my recently acquired one out yet but am pretty sure it will not be found too wanting in comparison with the others mentioned. Its alloy (lighter) but with stainless-steel inserts to the baffles to reduce 'gas-cutting' and it can also be stripped down easily for naintenance. Cheers L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redgum Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 I have a pred 8 on my 243 and 308 and it does the job, the T8 is as good, a mate has one on his 243 and its 10yrs old. He's never had any probs, just wd40 and an airline now and again.Pro's are that the pred 8 is stripable and you can get replacement parts so should last a lifetime, the T8 may not be stripable but its noticeable quieter than my pred 8.If I was buying a mod for my 243 today I would opt for compact in either model as the long mods arent needed on 243. Of course if you have loads of dosh there are some nice carbon fibre and titanium models about,wieght is the thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotland rifles Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Ase jet Z compact on the 243 now but had a 3rd eye tactical at just under £100 less than the Ase worked and worked well, fully strip-able and built to last, not have a DM80 on my 243 but Dave builds a cracking mod. bob.

Norrie Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Its abit like asking who has the best woman. Obviously its theirs.
