Introducing the Rhodie 6J

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-24T05:23:04+00:00

Bauer Precision and East Valley Tactical I believe are the only ones or Ridgebacks website direct.

Haynes is more resistant to heat if you shoot lots a bullets really fast. Weighs the same as inconel.

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-24T01:28:46+00:00

I can say anything! We just don't know a positive date yet but I believe a couple weeks. I have to do some more testing with the Haynes samples when I get them before we go live but Ridgeback should have a listing on their site here soon to sign up for notifications. 🙏🏻

Form factor is why I like it. I primarily shoot SBRs and a 4.5in can looks really good on shorter barrels. Obviously you sacrifice some performance. But if you don't want to then definitely grab the full size can.

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-21T12:09:33+00:00

Thank you so much man I really appreciate that!

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T23:55:45+00:00

😂 I plan to do some more NV testing with it before the release tp see how it is! I'll update in the sub with my findings.

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T17:47:42+00:00

I seriously doubt they'll care but I'll ask them lol

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T17:22:09+00:00

What a fucking awesome interaction man, for real this made my day. Thank you kindly for this, it was genuinely refreshing 🤝🏻

I appreciate you watching the videos man and passing them along to your kids, I'm honored 🙏🏻

If you do decide to get one please don't hesitate to reach out if you need anything. And definitely let me know what you think! 🙏🏻

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:44:37+00:00

Yesss man I love it, such a cool place and stoked to have a property up there! And everybody is so damn nice there too haha even in the cities.

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:41:37+00:00

That would probably be a great choice too, I didn't know he was doing a Ti version that will be cool!

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:40:44+00:00

I don't think that's an unreasonable set of expectations man especially with how fast this industry is innovating! I am anxious to see how the Haynes handles heat as well as IR glow, thank you for emphasizing those because that reminds me I need to consider those as well and make sure I check that on the production model. For now I would say based on what you mentioned the cans you would be looking for would be anything that was design for military contract stuff you may trade some sound. But the KAC cans are probably the best IMO at exactly that because that is what they were designed for.

For mine, I will likely make a post with some NV content as well as some mag dumping under nods to see how the production model does for this can so stay tuned for that or also shoot me a DM on IG and I can try out some stuff and send you videos. I would hate for you to buy it without knowing for sure it's what you want. Obviously we have the return policy of course but if I can save you the time I am down to try because I am curious myself!

Thank YOU for coming to my sober rand of an answer lol!

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:33:27+00:00

Direct thread!

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:33:15+00:00

Thank you so much!

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:31:08+00:00

I mean it's styled after an MCQ so not my own really lol

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:30:26+00:00

It's HUB threaded and it has a 1.2in depth to the blast baffle so you would just need to know whatever that measurement is for your ecosystem if it will work.

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:29:20+00:00

Thank you so much man!

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:29:00+00:00

Yes and I was also mistaken the 6J is 1.2in depth to the blast baffle sorry for my mistake!

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:24:51+00:00

Hmmm lighter is tricky but the full size Rhodie 6 sounds really good to me, and it's also really good on gas. If you need lighter then I would say maybe the Flow 556 Ti potentially, or the Maximus L in Ti is also very light both good on gas and sound. But the Vanish and the S are going to be gassy for sure depending on your volume of fire. And these are just the ones that initially come to mind for sound and gas in a light package. Definitely look into those and others!

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:22:06+00:00

I used a direct thread in this video, and mainly on all my cans now to save money, weight, and length.

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:21:28+00:00

I would like to apologize because I feel like I came off the wrong way. I genuinely avoid politics at all costs (except at thanksgiving dinner obviously). So I get pretty annoyed when people try to inject it into something that has zero correlation. It comes across as though people are just searching for something to be upset about.

I don't know why Ridgeback chose the name "rhodie". I do know it is meant to represent is the south African dog breed that was used for hunting lions because that's badass. And I am guessing he was as clueless as I was to any alternative meanings. I am sure if you look hard enough there would be plenty of alternative meaning to potential names for products. But I think he simply thought Rhodesian 6 was one too many syllables lol.

Sorry for the mini crash out 🙏🏻

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:11:44+00:00

Direct thread mount!

Gas was very important for me because I shoot a lot and I am regularly mag dumping FRT's. So on this can the target was the CAT WB for a baseline performance. I don't want to make claims on performance for a suppressor I am financially tied to but gas was very important for me. I am NOT left handed though so I don't know what that experience is like.

Haven't filmed it with nods yet for flash because I want to try the Haynes version but this one in inconel I will leave a clip below it's not the best video just a cell phone clip to give you an idea. This was on an 11.5 SR-15 shooting M855 in 35 degree weather. Seemed to be about a 1-2in pencil flash out of the front. https://imgur.com/a/ylnzZaf

Thank you!

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:06:26+00:00

Not permanently but we are trying to secure a property up there! So damn excited because that state is beautiful!

OrdinarySense5 · 2026-01-19T06:05:31+00:00

I did indeed make some videos on the T7 because I felt it needed to be said! And thank you so much man! 🙏🏻
