I used a DPT for a long time but eventually switched to an ASE eco for my 22s and leave the DPT for the 17hmr.
They have about equal noise reduction, maybe the DPT is slightly better but the ASE is far far easier to clean.
The baffles in the DPT more difficult to remove harder fouling tha the one piece core of the ASE. If I cleaned them more often it probably wouldn't be so bad but I got sick of trying to scrape out tbe inside of the DPT baffles.
Normal hunting use and a bit of target shooting wouldn't be so bad but with a lot of use the fouling builds up quickly.
