Overview
For the serious alpine hunter, maintaining a lightweight and balanced rifle is paramount. The Oceania Defence Alpine Hunter Short Suppressor is engineered to meet this demand, offering an exceptionally light solution that enhances your rifle's performance without adding unnecessary bulk. Weighing in at just 185gm (depending on the thread insert), this advanced centrefire suppressor ensures your mountain rifle remains agile and precise, even on demanding expeditions.
This short suppressor leverages a cutting-edge manufacturing process known as Selective Laser Melting (SLM). Instead of traditional machining and welding, the entire unit is 3D-printed layer by microscopic layer from Ti6Al4V Grade 5 Titanium. This creates a monolithic structure, free from welds or threaded joints that could compromise integrity. The SLM process also allows for incredibly complex internal gas-flow geometries, maximising sound and recoil reduction in a compact package while maintaining exceptional strength, ideal for various .30 calibre hunting applications.
Further enhancing its durability, the titanium undergoes a specialised heat treatment and nitriding process. This hardens the internal surfaces to approximately 65 Rockwell C, providing superior resistance to the erosive forces of high-pressure gases and unburnt powder. Its solid baffle design eliminates internal packing material, preventing water absorption in wet conditions and safeguarding your barrel crown from corrosion. Rated for powerful cartridges up to .300 Winchester Magnum, the Alpine Hunter Short is the ultimate tool for weight-conscious hunters pursuing big game.
- Ultra-Lightweight Titanium: At approximately 185gm, this suppressor adds minimal weight to your barrel, preserving the balance and quick handling of your mountain rifle.
- Monolithic 3D-Printed Design: Manufactured using Selective Laser Melting (SLM), the suppressor is a single, solid piece of Grade 5 Titanium, ensuring immense structural integrity without welds or joints.
- Advanced Gas Flow Geometry: The innovative 3D printing enables intricate internal baffle structures that significantly enhance sound and recoil reduction in a highly compact form factor.
- Extreme Erosion Resistance: Nitrided internal surfaces, hardened to 65 Rockwell C, provide outstanding protection against the abrasive blast of hot muzzle gases, extending the suppressor's lifespan.
- Zero Moisture Retention: The solid baffle construction means no fibrous packing materials, preventing water absorption during wet hunts and eliminating the risk of barrel thread or crown corrosion.
- Minimal POI Shift: Its lightweight design ensures negligible changes to barrel harmonics, resulting in highly consistent point of impact (POI) whether the suppressor is attached or removed.
