Episode 158 -  Sig Sauer SLH300TI, Q Cherry Bomb, SCAR, Backpressure, Alpha and Omega (12-APR-2023)

Today’s Topics:

  1. Sound Signature Review 6.107 – The Sig Sauer SLH300TI with subsonic 300 BLK. This is the technical discussion of the article published last week! (00:07:52)

  2. The Q Cherry Bomb. Love it or hate it – the proliferation is significant. Let’s talk about its influence on weapon function, as related to gas dynamics at the muzzle. The SCAR isn’t just a pretty face! The data utility of the apparatus is significant. We’ve talked about the Omega Metric. Now, it’s time to introduce and investigate the Alpha parameter. (00:51:39)

  3. Hope you had a great Easter weekend. Field research is something that I think a lot of folks have been doing on their own, which is great to see! Never stop learning and experimenting – pass the torch to those learning from you, such that they can teach others as well. The PEW Science effort is strong – shout out to contributing members!
