Hi all
Currently looking for a moderator for .308
The main options are Sonic, DPT, Hausken
Has anyone experience of any and if so, how did they perform?
Would also welcome any other brand recommendations

Worth a read.

In case you are thinking of some of the "older" type mods here is a review i done some time back:

Ase Utra S5/Jet-Z = €380
T8 = €270
Wildcat Predator = €295
ATec Maxim = €300

I have/had all four of them. I've given some observations based on usage and the rifles they were used on below.

An Ase Utra S5 on a .308 & .243

Great mod, great results with little to no difference in POI out to 300yds with it on or off.
Easy enough to clean.
Best sound reduction.
Heavy on the end of the barrel.
More expensive than most other mods.
Tough wearing and will last as long as the owner if treated right.

T8 on 30-06 and .243

Good on the .243 and 30-06, but difference in POI with mod on was 7" at 200yds.
Prone to rusting.
No more difficult to clean than an Ase, etc.
Screws down over barrel so reducing excess weight on the end of the rifle.
Has a resonance when fired.
Cheapest of the current available stock of mods.
Lighter than the Ase.

T4 AR on .223

Difference in POI with mod on or off at 100yds.
Prone to rusting. Needs regular maintenance
No more difficult to clean than an Ase, etc.
Screws down over barrel so reducing excess weight on the end of the rifle.
Cheapest of the current available stock of mods.
Lighter than some.

Wildcat on .223

Great mod, and very little in difference in POI with in on or off.
Lighter than the Ase and ( i think) the T8.
Screw down over the barrel for reduced weight.
Completely comes apart for easy cleaning.
Baffles can be changed allowing the mod to be used on a .223 up to .30cal wth new inners.
Polymer housing gives no resonance.
Cheaper than Ase, but a little more expensive than T8.

A-Tec Maxim/Hertz on .243

Lightweight
Good sound suppression
Reflex
Cheaper than most other makes at around €300
Comes apart for easy cleaning
Small change in POI with mod on to off.

...Wildcat Evolution here and no issues, completely modular, easy to clean, no POI difference, but if your putting rounds down range in any quick sequence a cover will be necessary...

RS98

+1 for the wildcat. Very easy to clean. Does heat up after about fifteen rounds though (223).

I've a sonic 45 on a .270 - does a great job of taming that.

Can't comment on other makes as i've no experience.
