Suppressed bolt gun - GrendelGoof - 04-02-2022

Hi all! First post and excited to be here.

Building my Howa mini HB Grendel and reading a lot on suppressors.

I see a lot of discussion about back pressure. I know that’s a concern with the ARs, but is it something I need to consider with a bolt gun?

Pretty set on the Dead Air Nomad Ti. Mainly precision and hunting applications, so rapid fire overheating isn’t a concern.

Welcome!

Back pressure is not a concern on bolt guns. I would recommend a wrap or sleeve for your suppressor to cut down on mirage if you're shooting longer ranges.
