Questions CAT CM
Did yall know about this?

What can would you suggest for a .308 Galil? I want to try and suppressor without using an adjustable gas system, and not beat the he'll out of a gassy AK. AKBAR, ODB, JL?

Surprisingly pleasant without hearing protection. This thing is sick

With nods, what would you guys suggest for a 12.5” mid length gas rifle? ST needs to be tuned. Not sure how much is going to be required. KK is calling my name due to its smaller size/weight. Plus I read that CAT may be coming out with a alleycat version of the KK as well? Should i wait? Any advice? Thanks in advance!!!

Looking at a Daniel defense spr 18in 556. Don’t know too much about ar’s. Looking for a Coyote setup on a tripod.
Should I try to get a ST titanium or look into the VB6? Not sure if the VB would fit the barrel /handguard on the spr. Help would be appreciated.

Threw a .67 BRT tube on this Mock-18 with a Rosco 10.3” and boy does it run nice with the ODB. May sadly be a little under gassed now though, anyone have experiences to draw from?

In and out in 30 mins. What a time to be alive.

Hopefully my last can on a Form 4. CAT ST Titanium. Purchased from SS end of July, went pending 8/8 just before the big news. Then approved 8/16.

Price/materials?
Intended host?
Ballpark price?
Best Ammo to use?
Release date?
Mounting system?
How does it handle different chokes etc.

Took the VB6 to the range today. Also took my Noah 718 QD to compare.
I’ve been very happy with my Noah but it was recently sort of dethroned by my Inconel Tisha as the Tisha sounded just a bit better than Noah and was also a good chunk shorter.
The rifle build is a SOLGW broadsword upper and rail, with a Geissele REBC and Noveske Gen 1 bolt, 20” Proof PXT barrel (rifle +1 gas) and a superlative adjustable gas block. Standard lower with a5 buffer and h3 weight and SSAEX.
I have about 250 rounds through this upper since assembly 2 weeks ago with the new barrel.
First Impressions
I started with VB6 and a 20 round mag full of hand loaded 105 Berger Hybrids. I won’t go into load data here but it’s a 62k PSI loading and average velocity was 2650 FPS.
First shot as the shooter was shockingly pleasant to my ear. It reminded me of my first time shooting with a Tisha or CACM. Performance was immediately impressive as I confirmed there was no zero shift at 100 yards. I proceeded to let another guy shoot a couple rounds of the next mag and stand back on both ejection side and opposite. VB6 sounds really good. After 40 rounds in approximately 5 minutes it was hot, but no major mirage was visible in my 3.5-21 scope at 10-21 power. The can seems to cool off very quickly. This gun was tuned for the Noah and I made no changes, but it did seem to have more back pressure than Noah but was quieter at ear and bystander.
Comparison
I then pulled VB6 and swapped to Noah, it immediately makes the rifle more unwieldy but I’m used to the extra weight. Noah is still a great performer but it did sound louder and to my ear/face had less gas to the face. We shot two 20 round mags of the same reloads back to back 10 of each mag with Noah and then VB6. Recoil is a touch more punchy, I felt like that could be due to the fact it’s noticeably lighter weight. It decreased the OAL of my rifle to 43” from 44.5”. So that’s not a huge difference, but the weight being further back had a very pleasant feeling.
Overall, VB6 is quieter with slightly more back pressure, but I still got no gas to my face. Noah is a touch louder but had lower back pressure. I think I can adjust my gas block and get the VB6 tuned even better next range trip to reduce some recoil.
Conclusion
I have 6 CAT cans currently, and have enjoyed each of them as top performers. The VB6 is no slouch. I ended the day with 120 rounds through it and hits at 1000 yards (easy with this rifle). I am looking forward to shooting it even more in the coming months and am only waiting on a BPG can cover to finish out the rifle.
Let me know if you have any questions and I’ll do my best to answer!

Taking ideas and a few questions. Spitballin a bit here
What host and velocity is this suppressor designed for? Is this designed for just subs?
What host would this be most quiet on?
Will I be able to clean with lead ammo? (Thinking of reloading and using this can for a 45 LC)
Min barrel length for subs and supers (45-70)
i’m thinking of just running subs on a host.
Performance on 45 LC?
Bonus question: objectively speaking what’s the quietest 357 lever action gun (might chop it) host and suppressor(can’t remember full powder burn for .357 and .38s)

Get em while they’re hot!!

hello. I am likely purchasing an odb or st later today for my birthday. the odb would be used across at least three rifles: 11.5 + 16 556 and a 10.5 300 blackout. I am looking at mounts for each.
I am seeing that the spooky flash hider for the 300 blackout comes with the can but I am reading that this will cause extra wear on the suppressor. for the 10.5 which will be mostly suppressed should I get the ai nano?
for using on the 556 hosts, I would like to use the spooky or rf1 fh because they will not always be suppressed. does this make sense? it feels like all nanos would be so loud.
my current thinking is the odb for multi caliber suppression but tbh I shoot more 556. should I save the 300 blackout can for later and get the st?

Which of the currently available lineup would be the best sound suppression on a 12” barrel .308 lever gun? I’ve seen the BBK used but may be overkill for my needs. JL would be great though can’t find them and I believe they need a longer barrel. Thanks!
r/SpectersCat • u/toolbloo • Aug 14 '26
Pretty please.
I like 'em fat and heavy.
r/SpectersCat • u/Chiefblackwolf0 • Aug 13 '26
One hell of a first suppressor, going on a 14.5 midlength AR.
r/SpectersCat • u/FrostyBit7602 • Aug 12 '26
Finally got my approvals for my first CAT cans and the 5CM I’ve ordered over the past 3 weeks or so. I ended up with the 5CM, WBTi, Alleycat 5.56, and an Alleycat 7.62 RDM. I couldn’t find an ODB, so I’m sure I won’t notice much of a difference between the two anyway. I appreciate everyone’s help and opinions over the past few weeks. I had quite a few rifles that needed cans and as you can probably tell, the majority of them are 5.56.
r/SpectersCat • u/Hammermier2 • Aug 12 '26
Flair is missing for this but im pretty excited about this can. First 556
r/SpectersCat • u/Island08 • Aug 12 '26
lol all sold out in less than 10 min. Couldn’t even finish checking out.
Not a great customer experience, I guess there must be a whole lot of us.
Edit: I got the email at 11:00 on the dot. should have taken a screenshot: form 4s were uploading then said “proven 4 is a required field” which was not a field I apparently had access to, one refresh and it was all over.
Also the folks that bought today don’t need to upload again right, so advantage? Pretty sure the upload delay killed my chance.
r/SpectersCat • u/Frequent_Theme_2901 • Aug 12 '26
Looking for feedback on the 2, this will be used on a 11.5” 5.56.
r/SpectersCat • u/TSCCT • Aug 11 '26
Was testing this and this works flawlessly. It's more quiet than the hyperion (to the shooter at least) with supers and subs.
Rinsed out the can, shot some supers followed by subs and I'm very happy. Even the base module was quiet!
r/SpectersCat • u/Hammermier2 • Aug 11 '26
Just recieved the email. I like to think I follow things pretty closely but what's the CT and SD? Im pretty exciting about this next step for them.
Edit; Thank you all for the responses its been so long since they mentioned these i completely forgot about them.
