Hey guys,
I have a cheap monocore solvent trap suppressor that I form 1’d and move between a few different rifles. I have mainly been shooting it on a 9mm AR, and a 300 blackout AR with the gas port plugged. I load both with 700x and get practically no first round pop from either of them, but recently I threaded a 44 magnum single shot, and I get a very loud first round pop on the 44 mag shooting 300 grain cast with 700x.
I am thinking of getting another tax stamp to build another suppressor with more volume and smaller blast chamber just for the 44, but before I do that I’ll think I’ll play with some different powder to see if a different powder type reduces it. Any suggestions? I would think a faster burning powder would be better. 700x and tightgroup are the fastest powders I have on hand. I also have a few medium pistol powders like power pistol and CFE Pistol. Can’t get much of anything for powder with driving about 3 hours.
