[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 2834548, member: 1132"] Well if anyone does cast parts correctly, it's Ruger. Cast tends to be heavier than machined in equal strength, but I don't think there's enough weight difference in this application to make a difference. Once set up, it's cheaper to produce, hence my comment of $449 for cast baffles? Too much. That being said, I just prefer a monocore .22 can for maintenance ease. My jailbroke Pilot with K baffles is a PITA compared to my SS Sparrow (but it does have less 1st round pop). I picked it over the Spectre II in spite of the 1st round pop, because I knew I'd be using it on a full auto gun. The Gemtech Outback II is a great can as well. About the cheapest I'd recommend is the Pilot II. It's essentially a jailbroke version of my original Pilot, which is very light weight. If they ever took cans off the NFA list, you'd see $50 K baffle cans. With that $200 " marriage tax", you're best off spending the money for the right can the first time out. Silencer Shop has a good page on picking the right rimfire can. [url]http://blog.silencershop.com/picking-rimfire-suppressor/[/url] Keep in mind that the centerfire can market is exploding with new innovation right now. Some of the new stuff is truly revolutionary, like the new Silencerco Hybrid and Omega. They're so much more versatile than the cans of just a few years ago. [/QUOTE]
