Is the use of iron sights precluded by all suppressors? Scope only unless suppressor removed? Anyone practice suppressed and purposely hunt without, like many do with muzzle brakes?
With your experience with a suppressed .338 LM, would you get one for a .375?Shooting a 338LM suppressed, I hated it. It was a very loooog heavy push. The only time I have ever been scoped. I did not want a suppressor after that experience.
Now some years have past and have shot suppressed with other rifles. I'm doing my best to have a suppressor for every rifle.

I’m not using a brake on any of my barrels, so I presume the push I’m used to with a .375 will be easier.
when my buddy opened our gun cases and the PH's and trackers saw we had suppressors they cheered for us. and for us that wear hearing aids we do not alway have time to take them out and put muffs or plugs inTrust me I would also be ragging on a man card carrying gent that showed up to camp suppressed. Either way still need one for the wife and willing to take a little grief for her comfort.
Cheers!

Yeah. My PH had supressors on camp rifles. My guess a lot of PH under 50 prefer them. Even the guy above was worried about muzzle blast in leopard blind.when my buddy opened our gun cases and the PH's and trackers saw we had suppressors they cheered for us. and for us that wear hearing aids we do not alway have time to take them out and put muffs or plugs in
I recently used a 416 Ruger caliber rifle (Mauser 66) with modified Hausken MD45 suppressor (diameter increased from .308" to 458") with rifle scope and open sights.Is the use of iron sights precluded by all suppressors?

Badass my man. Great jobI recently used a 416 Ruger caliber rifle (Mauser 66) with modified Hausken MD45 suppressor (diameter increased from .308" to 458") with rifle scope and open sights.
Worked pretty well, shooting without any additional ear protection and reduced recoil.View attachment 560757
So, did you have to remove the suppressor to us the open sights? Congrats on the buff!I recently used a 416 Ruger caliber rifle (Mauser 66) with modified Hausken MD45 suppressor (diameter increased from .308" to 458") with rifle scope and open sights.

Have to agree. Cool name, mediocre suppressors, terrible customer service, and almost impossible to find adaptive parts. 10 month wait for my stamp, then over a year to find parts..!? Finally bought a Silencerco adapter - Silencer Shop told me what parts I could interchange.Dead Air is not a good example. They have more QC issues than Texas has cows.
No, suppressor diameter is just 45mm, which works with open sight.So, did you have to remove the suppressor to us the open sights? Congrats on the buff!
Just returned from a 10-day buffalo hunt in Mozambique. I hunted with my .375 H&H Model 70 suppressed. I used a Silencer Co Hybrid 46. Worked great and I would recommend anyone looking for a large-caliber suppressor to take a look at it. MSRP is $939, and I think they offer 15% off on the website for signing up for an email list.
Just trying to share info for future users doing research like I was last year.

Thanks! I’ve been busy but just saw the email as well.@Philip Glass just received an email from TBAC. They have the .375 can about ready for order. Looks like a lot of choices in can selections. Prices to be released after SHOT.
