I don't know anyone that has ultrasonic cleaned a suppressor, lots of people that talk about it, but never anything first hand.

I suspect it doesn't do much for baked on lead... unless those heaters get it to 500-600º or so :)

So you would still need a solvent. I wonder how the 50/50 mix works when combined with an ultrasonic...

I know people who have used an ultrasonic cleaner. It does work and you don't require dangerous peroxide solutions.

But talking about a Whisper, I would support amafrank's comments, a lot of shooting required before serious cleaning is needed.

ultrasonic cleaners

We use ultrasonic cleaners at work to clean fused silica residuals off of stainless steel ultra-high vacuum parts. They work great! We put the part in distilled water and let it work for 45-60 mins. Done!
