Episode 259 - Otter Creek Labs Infinity Technical Performance and Sylvan Arms Intro (14-MAY-2025)

Today’s Topics:1. Big shout-out to Mark and the Hunt Backcountry Podcast! Mark invited me to speak with him a while back about “Suppressor Science, Selection, and Sound” in sort of a “hunting centric” fashion. Please check out Episode 523 of their podcast when you can! (00:09:18)2. Sound Signature Review 6.185 – Otter Creek Labs Infinity with subsonic 300 BLK. The Q mini Fix – an 8-in barrel proving ground, from the beginning. How does the versatile Infinity handle subsonic ammunition combustion out of a relatively short barrel? How does its performance compare with some older designs and some purpose-built 300 BLK designs? Technical discussion for this technical paper published 30-APR. (00:11:37)3. Sound Signature Review 6.186 – Sylvan Arms SA30TI with supersonic .308. Classic design; smaller diameter. Simple and secure mount. Let’s take a look at this 30 caliber silencer in this introductory topic to the whitepaper published today with this episode! (00:37:36)4. Sound Signature Review 6.187 – Sylvan Arms SA223TIS on the 14.5 M4. The shorter, dedicated 5.56 silencer to complement the SA30TI. Another classic, small diameter system with the same simple ACME thread secondary-retention. This is the introductory topic to the second whitepaper published today with this episode!
