Yankee Hill Stinger Vs. Mite
Yankee Hill Stinger Vs. Mite
Wondering if anyone has experience with both these suppressors. Besides the obvious differences on paper, just wondering what people who have worked with both like better & why.

I haven't seen on in the wild only pictures and based on the pictures if I HAD to buy one of them it would be the STINGER.11C1P wrote:Wondering if anyone has experience with both these suppressors.

At least the Stinger won't seal itself like the Mite, even if there is no performance difference thats enough of a reason!

Re: Yankee Hill Stinger Vs. Mite
Came in this week, pretty nice, a BIG improvement over the Mite, when I ordered, they didn't state any other caliber than .22lr, in the manual it is listed 17 HMR through .22 magnum and ..22lr. FA rated too..When the customer comes to test it out I will let you know how it runs.

Re: Yankee Hill Stinger Vs. Mite
They drilled the face instead of a scoop?
Still has to be a better performer than the Mite.
Wonder what Gemtech thinks about the use of the Alpine caged baffle design?

Re: Yankee Hill Stinger Vs. Mite
I know its second hand info but my dealer advised me against the mite. Said its not a good performer and their are better 22 cans in about the same price range. He had one on his desk using it as a paperweight.

Mite is terrible, loud and welds itself shut. Get the Stinger if you have to have a YHM can.

Re: Yankee Hill Stinger Vs. Mite
I thought that I had posted this ? weeks ago, but apparently not.
Why are there 6 circular machining marks around the throat visible in baffle face 6?
It's also visible in the threaded end.

Re: Yankee Hill Stinger Vs. Mite
Probably to improve sound performance. As manufacturers have been slowly perfecting the K baffle they seem to have discovered that altering the baffle face (instead of having a flat machined surface) seems to help reduce sound. There are similar features on the baffles in AAC's Element and Tirant lines.

Its for ease of machining. Face grooving tools long enough to groove those baffles are EXTREMELY expensive. Endmills are phenomenally cheaper.Conqueror wrote:Probably to improve sound performance.

Re: Yankee Hill Stinger Vs. Mite
I don't see how it's remotely possible how the stinger could be as aweful as the MITE(get it....all caps because the MITE is LOUD...I don't even think that one was funny, but oh well).
Re: Yankee Hill Stinger Vs. Mite
So did you get any reviews on it?STL/N.E.R.D.S. wrote:Came in this week, pretty nice, a BIG improvement over the Mite, when I ordered, they didn't state any other caliber than .22lr, in the manual it is listed 17 HMR through .22 magnum and ..22lr.

Re: Yankee Hill Stinger Vs. Mite
I wouldn't buy either. Spend a little more there are a lot better cans out there.
