SSS.6.33 - Research Supplement: 30 Caliber Hunting Silencers - First Round Pop (Article Preview)

Eight silencers evaluated by PEW Science are included in this members-only Research Supplement to examine relative First Round Pop (FRP) performance characteristics. The silencers in this group were selected for their applicability and market popularity for use as hunting silencers; silencers possessing length and/or weight characteristics making them conducive to field use on bolt-action rifles.

This research supplement is intended to provide more information to PEW Science members with regard to specific sound signature characteristics of the tested configurations and to help frame objective loudness comparisons between the eight silencers in the FRP signature regime. This supplement is part of ongoing PEW Science small arm weapon system sound signature research.

SSS.6.14 - Research Supplement: Radiant, Omega 300, and Sandman-S Further Analysis (Members Only)

The previous Sound Signature Reviews of the Rugged Radiant (6.12), SilencerCo Omega 300 (6.10), and Dead Air Sandman-S (6.11) presented typical sound signatures of the silencers on a .308 bolt-action rifle with an 20-inch barrel.

This members-only research supplement is intended to provide more information to PEW Science members with regard to specific sound signature characteristics of the tested configurations in the aforementioned reviews and to help frame objective loudness comparisons between the three silencers. This supplement is part of ongoing PEW Science small arm weapon system sound signature research.
