farmerguy.22 Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 T8AR on my .223 Designed for the job and no problems! Perfect for in and out of vehicle. Shorter than standard T8. +£200 though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jam1e Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 Theres the Swift Knightingale, which is a half "over barrel", it's 1/2" unf, alloy, and around the £150 mark or abit less. I've read they are good and have one on my CZ 527 .204 Ruger, but in all honesty i haven't got around to trying it out yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you have your Ear defenders on when you shoot the .204 - even with a Mod on they "Crack" Somwhat !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 The only issue with the dm Colin is having to get it made and rfd'd down to you, check when you get it cut what they have and recommend you should be in budget, if not you will be in wildcat range and most round us have them on the shelf.

Dekers Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 It damages the bluing on the barrel on the rifle and not as quiet as a end can Oh Dear, an over barrel mod will only damage the barrel if it incorrectly fitted. The whole point of them is good sound reduction and better rifle balance and handling compared to them sticking out a mile like an end can. They work well.
