Overview
The A-TEC Optima 45 Suppressor is expertly engineered for active hunting, offering an optimal balance of performance and lightweight design. This high-performance suppressor provides exceptional noise reduction, rated at 29 dB(C), and durable longevity, thanks to its intelligent baffle design and careful material selection. Weighing up to 338gm, the Optima 45 is a robust choice for hunters seeking superior sound moderation.
Its lightweight design makes it ideal for alpine hunting, compatible with a range of standard and light magnum calibres, including .270 Winchester, 6.5 PRC, and 7mm Rem Mag. This suppressor is specifically designed for hunting scenarios involving shorter shot strings, which helps maintain its optimal operating temperature. For enhanced comfort and precision, particularly from challenging mountain positions, the Optima 45 can be combined with its optional brake endcap to provide exceptional recoil and muzzle flip reduction, offering versatility for various conditions.
- Durable Construction: The A-TEC Optima 45 features a hybrid construction with a stainless steel boss section and a finely machined stainless steel baffle core, providing remarkable durability for its lightweight design. A super lightweight aluminium alloy body complements these robust components, ensuring long-lasting performance.
- Integrated Muzzle Brake: This suppressor incorporates a built-in first-stage stainless steel muzzle brake. This design effectively traps gas for enhanced recoil reduction and helps eliminate excessive erosion of the alloy components, thereby extending the suppressor's longevity.
- Optimised Diameter: With a 45mm diameter body, the Optima 45 offers an ideal balance between size and performance. This diameter is carefully chosen to suit the lines, balance, and mass of most hunting rifles, ensuring a harmonious fit.
- Broad Calibre Compatibility: The Optima 45 is designed for broad calibre compatibility, accommodating calibres up to light magnums such as 6.5 PRC or 7mm Rem Mag, considering their capacity, pressure, and heat characteristics. Within its weight class, this A-TEC suppressor excels in both noise and recoil reduction.
- Modular Design: The modular design of the A-TEC Optima 45 allows for customisation; modules can be added or subtracted to achieve your desired length, weight, and noise reduction ratio. Removing a module typically decreases the noise reduction effect by 3-5dB, depending on the calibre and barrel length.
- A-Lock Thread Adaptor System: This A-TEC suppressor utilises the innovative A-Lock thread adaptor system, which supports a wide range of muzzle threads. This system enables quick attachment and detachment, enhancing user convenience. Please note: The A-Lock adaptor is sold separately. The system offers two primary methods of use: either locked onto the muzzle thread for quick 1/4 turn attachment/detachment, allowing a single suppressor to be shared across multiple rifles, or locked inside the suppressor for traditional muzzle thread attachment, leaving no component on the barrel when removed. Bronco's Outdoors offers to set this up for you to ensure optimal quality and performance.
- Optional Brake Endcap Compatibility: For even greater control, the Optima 45 can accept an optional Brake Endcap. This endcap significantly reduces recoil and effectively straightens out muzzle flip, allowing you to maintain sight of the target through the recoil pulse. The Brake Endcap increases noise by 1-2dB, depending on factors such as the number of suppressor modules fitted, calibre, and barrel length.
- Overbarrel (Reflex) Design: The A-TEC Optima 45 features an overbarrel (reflex) design with a free-floating overbarrel section. This design is specifically engineered not to affect barrel harmonics, preserving rifle accuracy.
- MIL-STD-1474D Tested Performance: Unique to A-TEC, these suppressors are rigorously tested to the latest MIL-STD-1474D standard, recognised as one of the most stringent and difficult standards for suppressor performance. This commitment to testing ensures superior performance and reliability.
- Match Grade Precision: A-TEC maintains a single standard for precision: Match Grade. A-TEC suppressors are renowned for their concentricity, straightness, and fine dimensional tolerances. The tight bore apertures are particularly evident, maximising the sound reductive effect. To achieve peak performance from an A-TEC suppressor, ensure your rifle muzzle is correctly crowned, threaded, and shouldered.
