    New Suppressor

    New suppressor on my Savage .223. Made at Waitaki Engineering, overbarrell model weighing 650g (I know its heavy but I don't think its going to break down any time soon). Full stainless steel. Extends past muzzle by 12cm, overall length 30cm.

    Apart from you being a righty and me lefty, our rigs are almost the same
    completely different rifle with the suppressor. Good decision

    Nice rig mate. I have a Waitaki can on my AR. Seems to take a beating.

    I can't wait to get my grubby little paws on my suppressor for my savages from Spanners though.

    Shit they are too! Great value for money these packages are I reckon! I haven't fired it with the suppressor yet, hopefully it works well

    Great looking setup. That suppressor wont fall to bits that's for sure. What are you going to chase?
    Save our Tahr. They belong in the southern alps.

    You're not far from Waimate either, plenty of wallabies around there. Long slow roast with the back legs for a tasty feed.

    Mine like it too... only shot one group with it, punched a fairly casual 19mm from memory and I was in a hurry so didn't try any more.

    Mostly using handloads but its good to know there is cheap, accurate factory ammo I can use if need be.

    Waitaki offer to do all the fitting free of charge if you buy one of their suppressors, if they're good it's a great deal
    Boom, cough,cough,cough
