The 2 most vital components for selecting a suppressor for a backcountry hunt are sound suppression and weight, and the .30 caliber Banish Backcountry suppressor was constructed with these components in thoughts.

Testing
I used this suppressor on quite a lot of rifles, together with my .308 Shorty with BAT Igniter motion and Leupold 2-10x, my 7mm PRC full-custom Bergara construct, and AK.
“Shorty” is already a compact platform, so the BANISH Backcountry was a pure match. It was nonetheless simply maneuverable. After I added the Backcountry to the 7mm PRC with 22” barrel, the rifle was for much longer than Shorty, however the suppressor sufficiently decreased the recoil and sound.
I a lot choose this to the SRS TiPro brake for searching, merely due to sound suppression. I realized from Pieter Malan throughout our Africa hunt that suppressors can work to confuse recreation and permit for fast follow-up pictures on a second animal.
Capturing my AK variant was actually only for enjoyable and since I hadn’t shot my Berry’s 7.62 x 39 subsonic load shortly.
Recoil Rig
To quantify the BANISH Backcountry’s impact on recoil, I examined it on the recoil rig with my 6.5 Creedmoor construct.
This rifle is centered round a BAT TR motion in an MDT ACC chassis. We shot the rifle naked muzzle, with the BANISH Backcountry and with the APW Raptor Monster Brake.
The Banish Backcountry decreased peak forces by 22.4%. The APW Raptor Monster took it down even additional with about 40% peak drive discount.
Conclusion
The BANISH Backcountry lived as much as our expectations for a compact searching suppressor. Guy Miner has been desperate to hunt suppressed ever since I threaded the muzzle on his .30-06. He’ll be testing the BANISH Backcountry on it and the Bergara Ridge Carbon!
