f1 Stamp showed

[SRM]

its pretty face today!!!!

.22lr, 6 1/4" oal.

Any suggestions. I`m open to any ideas. What you fellers got?

I`m thinkin a spiked OD and threadless tube, stainless or titaniun. NO Aluminium!

I like Ti its very forgiving on 22 pressures and is uber lite.

What was your time frame for stamp? What design were you thinking of using?

[SRM]

I kinda lost track but it was right at six months. Two more weeks and should have another for a sbr 10/22. I sent them at the end of October.
As far as baffles, I`m probably just go with k`s and a knurled tube.

What is a Spiked OD?
Also, how do you create a threadless tube? (I can think of a monocore...but that's about it)

Thanks!

A spiked od would be a single point cut, realy large knurl. And heavy but could be cool.
The threadless tubes are usually done with monos.

[slickster81]

Thanks....now I know!

[SRM]

Not done yet. 12 0z. of 304 SS. What ya think? About thirty hours so far.

[SRM]

I finally have my own pig!

[Capt. Link.]

It looks great I hope you will have lot's of photo's to post when your done.
Don't forget to post on Wicked's completed builds

[SRM]

I wish I would have taken more pics cause the tube was made from solid. Sorry but when I start makin somethin, there is no time for a pic.

I will take more as this is for us all, rite?!

Thanks Capt.!

Nice work SRM I know what you mean about the pics, once I get rolling I hate to stop. Since I'm old it takes a lot just to get started God forbid I stop.

I profiled the inside of the endcap tonight and was interupted three times. Two hours later.

No pics.

[SRM]

Down to 10.5 oz !!!

Last baffle doesn`t seem to be doin much. It`s interesting to see the gas flow in there.

These pics were taken after about 70 rounds of remington subs. They do spark out the ejection port.

All ports were plunge cut with 3/16 ball mill. face of baffle was cut with a 1/4" profile insert.

It does have an interesting sound. Hard to describe.

[SRM]

An interesting side note is it has no frp and a rather large blast chamber, go figure.?

Any chance of a vid?

[SRM]

I only have an I phone.

[SRM]

How important is the dater hole? And for the port in the cone, I wonder if I made a bevel from the outside, if it would make it more aggresive?

As far as the frp, I may just not be hearing it. Pretty sure I`m half deaf.

Looks great! Would you mind posting basic dimensions of your baffles?

[SRM]

Sure can. I`ll do it tonight.

[SRM]

Basic dimentions of baffles in inch ;

OAL: .805
Dia.: .936
Bore: .259
Dia at skirt waist: .445
Rim thickness: .135
12 degree angle front of face.
Skirt thickness: .040
Face scoop cut: 3/16 dia.
Skirt cut: 1/4 dia.
The scoop cuts were plunge cut, center of tool at .02" outside the edge of the bore hole. Cut deep as possible.
The nose of the baffle protrudes .125" past the rim. Diameter of the nose is 300"
The rear face was cut with a 1/4 dia profile insert to a depth of .1" leaving a rim face of .03" wide.

Dater hole has not been drilled yet. And I agree with Lavared that each baffle needs to be tuned to its place in the stack.
The baffles could be made stronger by shortening the cone thereby increasing the diameter of the waist. Should be stronger and shortening the OAL of the stack.

Excellent work - well done - I guess you have CNC at your disposal ?

[SRM]

No sir. All by hand and no two are the same.

eta; the lathe used was a 1982 Summit 19-4x120. Three jaw chuck. Wish it had a dro.

All by hand, the same as me

I particularly like the lightening work in the end cap, i guess you used a rotary table and sunk a milling cutter in ?

Always interested to see how others with the same kit as me (no CNC) get on

[SRM]

I used a 3/8 ball mill on the mount down to the muzzle. A 5/32 mill to open it up down to the flange I guess. could go a little deeper but want to make sure I don`t have to drill from the outside for a spanner. Right now I`m using a friction wrench. And yes to the rotary head.

I work with a former cnc opperater and he is one smart feller but I can smoke anyone on a manual lathe. Funny thing is these baffles took on average an hour each. The last one was thirty min. Thank you fer your comments!
