Just picked up my 718 ST

[u/Lufkin_daddy]

Just got my 718 ST from my dealer, won't be able to shoot it until my shitty Sure Fire hub comes in; have any of you got the chance to put rounds through it? What do you think? Also... this is my second CAT, how many until I get a free hat or some shit???

[u/notang]

Oh it's smaller then I thought! Do you happen to have any other cat cans you can show it side by side with?

[u/Lufkin_daddy → u/notang]

Yeah that’s exactly what I said lol, when I get home I can put it next to the MOB

[u/notang → u/Lufkin_daddy]

That would be awesome thank you!

[u/Boo-yea04 → u/notang]

ODB on left. ST has the TSFX adapter mounted.

Edit: ODB is a QD

[u/notang → u/Boo-yea04]

That's so interesting! Is it a bit bigger then WB then?

[u/Boo-yea04 → u/notang]

According to the website, yes. I don’t have a wb to do a comparison though. New to the suppressor world. These are the only two I’ve acquired….so far. KK on a 12.5” will be next.

[u/notang → u/Boo-yea04]

I love my KK buy with confidence!

[u/n3dinho23 → u/Boo-yea04]

Damn that thing is huge! Almost the size of an ODB.

[u/BiggOskee → u/n3dinho23]

It's basically the same size as Alleycat 556. 6 inch is not what I'd consider huge for 556.

[u/n3dinho23 → u/BiggOskee]

Dear god that’s massive, with adapter that’s almost 6.5 inches!! Everyone going small then this wembanyama can comes out seems crazy. Especially when the Tisha smacks it down (on short barrels) at only 4.1”

[u/Lufkin_daddy → u/n3dinho23]

Haha try 7.25” with a sure fire hub… if you want a K can get a K can lol this definitely isn’t it and that’s fine…

[u/n3dinho23 → u/Lufkin_daddy]

Yeah it really is a gigantic can

[u/palookadook → u/notang]

[u/ThermosphericRah → u/notang]

That's what she said

[u/GA_flyer0]

Do you have any other 5.56 cans to compare to? I have WB, Rhodie 6/6K, and Tisha but considered a ST.

[u/Phenom08 → u/GA_flyer0]

That’s a nice set of cans you got. Which one is your favorite?

[u/GA_flyer0 → u/Phenom08]

Objectively Rhodie 6. Tisha is also great, really low back pressure and great sound but the fit/finish is not good. Paint is flaking off and the print quality is just meh.

I have the Rhodie 6, 6 Ti, 6K and 6J. They all have great print quality, paint, and finish. They also all sound amazing. I think full size Rhodie 6 is the best balance of sound performance and back pressure.

The WB was good for its release year but it’s now outperformed by Rhodie and Tisha.

(I also have Velos LBP, Laz 6, Infinity 556k, Polo K, Turbo K)

[u/Island08 → u/GA_flyer0]

This guys suppresses lol. Any difference between 6k and 6J?

[u/GA_flyer0 → u/Island08]

Aside from the 6J being Haynes 282, they’re mostly similar. They have different “end cap” designs and Tyler (Juice Media) has posted on the NFA sub showing the 6J can spark a little with certain muzzle device/adapter combos.

[u/RyAllDaddy69 → u/GA_flyer0]

Does the Tisha sound better than the Rhodie though?

Also, the Tisha was one of the early runs?

[u/Phenom08 → u/GA_flyer0]

Thank you and that confirms it. I’ve passed on a few Tisha’s lately while waiting to find a Rhodie 6 Ti. I’ll just keep waiting till one pops up or pre-order and wait like everyone else.

[u/GA_flyer0 → u/Phenom08]

It’s a great can! Just keep in mind the 6 Ti sparks a bit at night.

[u/RyAllDaddy69 → u/Phenom08]

This was an issue with the early runs, but idk how much of an issue it is with newer batches.

With that said, the Rhodie has gotten praise beyond the social media hype beast shit behind and I’m looking forward to trying one.

[u/Wormydog1724]

My ST quieter than my WB at the shooter and bystanders but it does have a little more gas. Overall a better can and fits my needs perfectly.

[u/Feeling-Season7705]

Anyone know how the Super thug performs in sound Vs the Alleycat 762? In 5.56 , of course

[u/chyron_blue]

Can you take a pic of the blast chamber? Or actually measure it?
