    My dedicated 5.56 can is my YHM turbo k. It is 4.8in long and weighs 11.5 oz with the kurz kit and i love it, bought it for $ 375 a few years back. If I didn't have that, I would definitely get the polonium.K. Good video enjoy your can😊

    As far as tuning, I recently got a Bootleg adjustable BCG and it works great. I got it to tame my LWRC being a little over-gassed unsuppressed but the last two suppressed settings will come in handy when I do get a can.

    I’d give it a shot at its price but I have some high end cans that I doubt it can out perform (CGS Sci-six, WB 718, Helios DT, etc). I definitely like the way it looks and from what I can tell how it sounds great too.

    I prefer the Griffin plan A. It's super low profile and it's only 2 ounces. Plus they have tons of muzzle devices to choose from. I like running there bayonet micro brake. It actually sleeves the barrel and gives you a .61" shorter overall length. So your 11.5 would handle like a 10.9.

    I have a hard time grouping any K can amongst the "best" 5.56 dedicated suppressor unless all we're talking about is K cans. They're just too small for any kind of beneficial returns. Is it better than no can? Sure, but that's even arguable.

    • @RockyMountainGunClub
      @RockyMountainGunClub  10 місяців тому +5

      Yeah I dont think it's as quiet as the "best" 5.56 cans but it's definitely as quiet as alot of full size 5.56 cans. And when you factor in the price and size I think it's one of the best 556 options

      @@coach- It's a K can though.... I currently own 7 suppressors, 2 being k's, one of which is 5.56 dedicated. Don't get me wrong, K's on the end of a rifle are FAR better than no suppressor but you'd be amazed by what just an extra pair of baffles+ can do when it comes to supersonic cartridges. Now, if there was a category of best K cans then I would be all for it but the benefits gained from a larger platform greatly outweigh the little bit of length and weight saved vs a K. I'd personally love to see some companies work on integrated "k" size suppressors for both 5.56 & 308.

    The OC Polonium or K will be my next can. I have the DA Sierra 5 and it sounds amazing. Very high back pressure also. I consider it a K can so I’m leaning towards the full size P.
    I have the OC OCM5 and it’s by far the most amazing can I’ve ever used. OC makes amazing products.
    Are you saying the K has less back pressure than the full size?

    • @RockyMountainGunClub
      @RockyMountainGunClub  8 місяців тому

      Apparently it does have less back pressure. I shot the full size on my friend's 11.5 and it felt better than my 11.5 with the polo k but I think his gun is gassed alot better than mine

    • @scott2228
      @scott2228 8 місяців тому

      Good to know. I made several adjustments to my 11.5” AR to mitigate the Sierra 5 back pressure. The gun / can are now perfect. And even with all the changes, it still cycles unsuppressed Which is great!!
      I guess now it’s a question of sound and weight to help decide. Not sure which AR it will be for yet. My Sierra 5 rotates between an 11.5” and a 14.5”. Perhaps picking a rifle 1st will help the process. The Sierra 5 back pressure is not noticeable on the 14.5”.

  • @juanthelawnmowerthief1641
    @juanthelawnmowerthief1641 10 місяців тому +1

    Might try a Superlative Arms Adjustable gas block with its bleed off settings should help reduce the back pressure coming back down the barrel unlike normal adjustable gas blocks that just restrict the gas.

      If your barrel is like a Faxon or Noveske or others with massive gas port hole the superlative block in the vent mode still has way too much gas in the system with a standard baffle can. I won't buy another one I'm not impressed with mine.
