The SF can is a nice can don't get me wrong, and probably works awesome for military applications, but the sound suppression is by far outside my expectations for a hunting can...
Something to ponder, basic rule of thumb, the more expensive the product the higher quality it is (regarding the gear in our industry), Look at Simmons and Swarovski, whether it's got more options, made out of better materials, took longer to R&D or T&E, etc. etc. You get my point
There are a few manufacturers out there now who are catering to the sportsmen, and they are significantly dropping the price, making them much more affordable, which is awesome for the average Joe... Personally I would love to get my hands on a few "more affordable" cans and run the pi$$ out of them like we do with our gear and see if they hold the repeatability, or sound suppression, or round count, etc. etc.
