Looks like Rugged decided to make an aluminum baffle rimfire can; not sure why

Does anyone her actually shot an oculus in the short config? I switch mine between a 10/22 and a mkiv and other then one time when I first got it it is always in the long config. It is a nice idea, but in practice it is too much effort to reconfigure it.
Nothing wrong with the oculus, but I think the short config is a gimmick that isnt useful in the real world.
Anyone mention the Spectre II? Mine is super quiet. I do the dip which works but precipitating the lead acetate into a non soluble form is kind of a pain. You can get phosphoric acid from the brew store but you're still creating hazardous waste in the process.
I've seen a few shooters running a Dear Air Mask in competions and was impressed by the low noise level and consistant accuracy (YMMV). As rimfire ammo runs so dirty, I shouldn't have been surprised at how quickly the internals needed cleaning. Using a brush and CLP on each baffle, plus the end caps and the can itself was tedious, and I wanted avoid using/storing /disposing of a home brewed toxic solution. I ended up just spraying the parts with PAM cooking oil and now it just wipes clean.
I cleaned a can ONCE before I got an ultrasonic cleaner. Use 50/50 simple green/water in a bag with baffles in the tank with water to knock most fouling off leaving a thin coat, or use more expensive CLR to clean them spotless.
