markm Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 SAK do the job, but there are some very good dedicated 17 mods on the market including a DM80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billytheghillie Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 SAK £39 and use it on the .22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telf Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 I have a DM80 on mine and very happy with it ,dont know if its any quieter than a sak as never compared them , although calibre specific mods are supposed to be slightly more accurate than non specific Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartyboy Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 I used the LEI moderator and it was very good and slimline. Expensive though. The Sak was excellent too tho and much cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker570 Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 I use my SAK both on my 17HMR and on the 22RF and on the 22RF it is silent, of course you will not prevent the supersonic crack of the 17HMR but the SAK on mine kills the report from the rifle so much so I have had animals actually run towards me away from the impact, not knowing where the noise of the bullet came from. Regarding accuracy, both of my rifles shoot a lot more accurate than I can with the SAK and don't see how either could have been improved. Spend your hard earned on shells instead, get a SAK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaman Posted November 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 If I had a 22 sak can I use that on .17 HMR as well as my .22lr? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beanieboy Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 I have the Wildcat Whisper. It's better built than the Sak, but there's no difference in performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are separate slots for rifles and mods. Certificate doesn’t say .17 rifle conditioned for moderator. It’s just a rifle. If you also have a moderator on your ticket your ok.

Yep, never been told that any of my four moderators are linked to any special rifle and certainly between the rim fires they share. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remimax Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 unless there's been a recent miracle nothing muffles a hmr that well and for the extra tiny gains for the fancy stuff don't think its worth it. i run a sirrocco with the stainless baffle on me 455 hmr but the sak is just the same on noise reduction.
