Which ones fit your barrel and host?
Check in the BuilderThe Thunder Beast Silencer Summit fires every suppressor entered on the same gun, with the same equipment. NLS 30K Predator was measured in 4 tests. Figures can only be compared with others from the same test, so each one links to everything else fired on that gun.

Manufacturer claim
- Rated for full-auto use with no barrel length restrictions, though running full-auto for an extended time without a cool-down period will shorten its lifespan through heat erosion.
- The maker's caliber chart lists it as rated for .17 HMR through .223/5.56, plus 6 ARC, 6.5 Grendel, 6.5 Creedmoor, .270 Win, .300 BO, .308 Win and .300 Win Mag.
- A one-piece 3D printed design made from Stainless Steel with 4 internal baffles, redesigned for hunting from the original NLS5P: shorter, lighter and HUB compatible for multiple mounting options.
- The baffle design separates the stream of air and gas, directing it through ports into outer spiral channels that create several independent vortices, which the maker says significantly reduces "blowback" of gas into the firearm and the fouling that comes with it.

- Finish coated with Infernoware, a coating that dissipates heat both during and after use; the maker says it was the first to introduce this coating to suppressors.
- Because of the one-piece design the inner air passages are hard to keep clean; the maker recommends soaking in CLP every 300-400 rounds, then draining and blowing out the fouling by shooting it or with compressed air.
- The maker recommends a QD mount from an established, reputable company to avoid baffle strikes from a low quality mount system.
- Comes with the buyer's choice of one NLS HUB compatible direct thread adapter: 1/2-28, 5/8-24, Sig 13.5-1 LH threads.
- The maker's caliber chart lists it as not approved for .338 ARC, 9mm or .350 Legend.
