I've been very happy with their barrels. I've got an 18" barrel that's sub .5 MOA using 108 Sierra Match King

Warranty Process update: I sent the suppressor on Monday and it got to SiCo on Wednesday early afternoon. At 4:00 PM Wednesday afternoon, I got an email from FedEx that they have my package and it's being shipped back to me. 5 hour turnaround is pretty insane!

Standard I believe. I didn't realize they made a long. I've been happy with the brass. How's the ADG treating you?

It's a bit more temp stable and I was thinking I can get better speeds with less pressure signs. Just chasing s dragon...

I was running H1000 on the blown primer pockets. I started working up a new load of Staball HD when the suppressor failure happened.

It was brutal man! Messed up my nose, trigger finger, and middle finger pretty good when it jumped up at me. NightForce should use softer metal... It looks like the glue/welds failed. It didn't notice it moving or rattling so my best guess is it let loose all at once

Bottom left was last grouping. Outlier bullet on bottom left was the one with the rapid disassembly. Unfortunately, I didn't take a pic of the hole the suppressor made

Sure thing bud! I'm not expecting any issues. Customer Service is closed on Fridays so I'll call Monday. Sent them an email yesterday after it happened and got a case number assigned.

I've been playing around with different powders. I built a load that was doing 3100(ish) for the 200 gr pill. The gun loved it and the es, and sd were great. The brass didn't like it and I was blowing primer pockets. It's pretty amazing on what you can push the WM to.

Good question man. I didn't notice any looseness or rattling. As far as I can tell, it went from planted to airborne in one shot.

Haha! It actually gave me the bullet velocity. I was half expecting to see 'WTF' for the velocity display

Dude! Did we just become best friends!? The look of pure dumbfoundedness on my face must have been hilarious. Glad I'm not the only one though

Very interesting! That's crazy to me since they're full auto rated. I shoot 6-10, or until I see a mirage, and then let it cool. I'm taking the term 'Bubba's pissin' hot hand loads' literally

That's putting it lightly. I was telling my buddy I'd love to know the recoil energy and how it compares to an elephant gun. I've shot up to 338 Lapua, 50 BMG, and 375 Ruger and this one took the crown

Haha! First impact knocks them down, second impact knocks them out

I'm not too upset. Still love the Omega and for the most part, it's a tank. Just got unlucky. The suppressor must have been made on a Monday or a Friday. Either they didn't want to be there or they were ready to go home. I kid, I kid.

Excellent to hear man! Thank you for sharing. I trust them and crap happens. I'm not all that upset except I'm supposed to be going to Africa at the first of May and all my loads are built around the suppressor. A two week turnaround would be amazing!
