I've always wondered about the accuracy of a wiped can. How does this compare to a non-wiped can?

General logic is that wipes do reduce accuracy, which is only logical as they touch the bullet on its way out.Dweezil wrote:I've always wondered about the accuracy of a wiped can. How does this compare to a non-wiped can?
I have yet to shoot my Poseidon beyond 25 feet. I can hit a tennis ball sized target sighting through the can with my PM9. You should remember that the Poseidon is a specail purpose can for compactness and long term storage of an ablative. It's not a heavy duty target can.Dweezil wrote:I've always wondered about the accuracy of a wiped can. How does this compare to a non-wiped can?
Accurate enough for the job mine has to serve!strobro32 wrote:I have yet to shoot my Poseidon beyond 25 feet. I can hit a tennis ball sized target sighting through the can with my PM9.
Wow, That's actually way more accurate than I expected. Certainly good enough.strobro32 wrote:I have yet to shoot my Poseidon beyond 25 feet.

Make sure you post up the video!strobro32 wrote:I have yet to shoot my Poseidon beyond 25 feet. I can hit a tennis ball sized target sighting through the can with my PM9.

Lance,
The problem with a 32 round mag in a M11/9 is the Poseidon needs to be recharges about every 18-20 rounds. I would love to try it with the M11/9 SMG this weekend. I know Brooks and Richard are cool enough to rebuild it if I blew it up but they have been very busy filling orders. I'm not sure if I want to push my luck. That is unless they give me their blessing. My barrel is threaded .5 x28.

I have a Colt mustang pocketlite, and I am VERY interested in this as well.
If you don't mind, what about the little .22? Specifically, would it perform well on my 10/22 or a buckmark w/subsonics? (without ablative or wipes, that is)Brooks@Thompson Machine wrote:Angelbeast,
Thanks for your service, and happy Thanksgiving!!
As for your questions:
1. We have been finished with the prototyping stage for a couple weeks now. The first run is almost done and ready for shipping.
2. The front wipe (the one important for suppression) is good for about 15-25 rounds.
3. The Poseidon was designed from the ground up to be shot wet and wiped for optimum suppression, so you loose a significant amount of suppression when you shoot it un-wiped. It's still not too bad though
4. I'm sending you a PM about payment.
Thanks,
Brooks
