DPT over barrel moderator

Yes, very light, very good, well priced.
Does not ruin balance and still works unlike some baked bean tins sold as moderators.
Unless the muzzle velocity is over 3k fps, don't bother with the stainless baffle.
Follow manufacturer's reccomendations regarding size/calibre.
I’ve got one on my 308. Very effective

Really light and effective on 7mm Mauser
I have them on both my 22-250s and I know a lot of people with them on both smaller and larger calibres
No complaints from any of them
I would recommend the magnum version and a stainless first baffle for best sound moderation and longer life

I use DPT on all my rifles from 223 up to 8.5x55, including a 6xc. Cant rate them highly enough really, light, good price and very good noise reduction. worth bearing in mind the manufacturers guidance re long shot strings and target shooting (ie let it cool), spare Baffles easily available if one does burn out (the stainless one mitigates this to some extent).

I have one on my .243, light and well made and does not effect the balance too much. If you are going to get the stainless steel baffle do not remove one of the baffles just add the stainless one in. I have an additional baffle in my moderator it only adds about 20mm to the length and adds another few Dbs of noise suppression which is good.

Had two DPT on a Blaser 270 which was a magnum and std on a Blaser 243. Swapped both for a Stalon 108 and the noise and recoil reduction was noticeably better.
DPT were slightly smaller diameter and possibly felt better balanced but I wont go back as less recoil and sound is my priority

I also run a couple, one in a 6x47, one on a 204. Mine are both end of barrel models, both with stainless baffles, and 2 extra baffles, great mods, lightweight work very well, the mk2 is better than the mk1, also Bill is a great bloke to deal with pm me if you want his details

I've got my RFD to ping them a mail, but thanks for the offer.
I've asked him to query an over barrel mod, 18:1 thread, 6mm calibre, and with stainless baffle.

Following reviews on here, I’d previously ordered in a DPT with a stainless baffle to @Edinburgh Rifles
When I actually handled it in the shop and compared it to a Hausken and a Stalon I paid a little bit more and left the shop with a Stalon Xe149 which I am very happy with.
The DPT are good but I felt the Stalon was better build quality and it’s performance in the field is brilliant.

I have a dpt over the barrel mod. It is light, thin and short. I use it on a 6.5-284 for recreational stalking. I also have an atec, stalon and a t8. Out of the lot I prefer the dpt
