Regrettably, I can't say I have a wodge of cash burning a hole in my pocket but seeing as I have been planning to buy a suppressor, I clearly have some to spare.
However, I find myself wondering if my current shopping list is the best choice for my one likely shooting indulgence of the first half of 2015 is actually the best use of my money.
My choices:
-A .223 cal suppressor (about €340)
-A .30 cal suppressor (about €380 plus barrel threading and perhaps an AR adaptor: grand total about €550 ) to use on the bolt gun and possibly the AR.
-An electronic powder measure/thrower from Lyman or Hornady etc (€280-350)
I think one consideration that I will deal with in a separate thread is whether or not an automated powder thrower will work for me in my situation. I'll go over that here.
Given my supplies here (extruded stick powder) is an automated dispenser an indulgent luxury or a real, reliable, necessity?
Would you say the benefits to the shooting experience of a suppressor outweigh the possible time-saving of an electronic powder thrower?
Thoughts, please.
