Dannix,

Make sure when using lead bullets with a suppressor that your suppressor can be taken apart to clean. Most people say it is lead buildup but it is not. I shoot predominately lead bullets and took all the buildup from my Uzi SMG suppressor and tried to melt it down to see how much of it was lead. The pile started out to be the size of my fist. I got a piece of lead smaller then the size of a quarter, the rest was all burnt powder and bullet lube.

I know this is a shameless plug for my suppressors but all my cans are take apart so they are cast bullet friendly. I do not have anything on my site about it yet but I do have a can for the 300 whatever we are calling it today. It is the same can with a smaller hole as our 338 THUMPER suppressor. We are currently working on trying some other materials and coatings for it to make it super light. We are also working on an integral suppressor for the Whisper.
