lefthooker Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Hi all, Been browsing on this site for a long time now, some really beautiful set-ups here and interesting articles too. Now I'm looking for a bit of advice. I'm looking for a new mod for my .204, I currently use a T8AR . With the heavy barrel I have its very front end heavy. I've a new project on the way which will have a different thread job so have the chance to try a new mod. My main priority is weight- the T8 is good but my god the weight of it. I have a preference for a reflex design as I'll be using a 24" barrel. Sound suppression is also high on the list. If something ticked all those boxes that would be great Waiting to hear your opinions. LH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
22/250 foxer Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 My shooting mate has a dm80 on his 204. Does a very good job and fairly light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does a very good job and fairly light I have read a lot of good reviews for the DM80 but its not readily available over here and Dave doesn't post directly to Ireland the last I heard. There is a way around that of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagged 77 Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 I've just acquired a jet-z CQB for my .17 rem. There may be lighter mods out there but it's not bad (certainly better than a t8) and noise suppression is spot on, plus extremely good build quality. Nice and compact too.

Looks a fine unit but at 560g its not an awful lot lighter than the T8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danpd Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Jet Z CQB-S is a fantastic little mod for the 20's very small and unobtrusive on the end of the barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefthooker Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 The Hardy Gen4 which is recommended for the 17 Hornet works well on the 20's The Hardy looks an interesting option but its yet to appear on these shores as far as I know. I asked an RFD if he'd seen one or knew anything about them, I ended up having to fill him in. I'd have to get one ordered in specially Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagged 77 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Looks a fine unit but at 560g its not an awful lot lighter than the T8 I have used both on my lightweight .17 rem and I can assure you the handling is very much improved with the CQB - it certainly feels a damned sight lighter than the t8 that's for sure....

lefthooker Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Thanks for the replies lads, I'll ask around more about the DM80, CQB and Hardy. The options I have here are the Sonic 45 and Atec Maxim, has anyone got any thoughts or use the above? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw the mod that Baldie was testing, really nice unit, would love to know more LH I only copped your website at the bottom of your post. I'd still like price and specs on a .20 cal stainless reflex and S series mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rammer223 Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 I've come to this conclusion with sound mods and its only my opinion heavy equals quiet ish light equals not as quiet ish it all comes down to what you are prepared to carry what ever you end up with there will be a compromise Jetz quiet heavy little bugger good noise reduction Atec maxim lighter but a little noisier Don't think what your shooting at would notice a difference just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
