Could you please repost the STL files?
I really want to try them.
I will update here on the results.

John,

The files are huge.  Could you please be very specific about which of the many variants you are interested in; including caliber, OD; and monolithic or segmented?

naptemp:
I am interested in:
-.177 and .22 calibers
-not sure about the OD (the quieter the better for me)
-segmented preferably, also the monolithic if you have room

Thank you

John,

I have combined all my Maxim zip files into large zip file.  You will need to sort through the contents to find which you want.  The file names are descriptive.  If an individual file seems missing, PM me and I will look for it.

I am OK sharing the files, but I am not OK spending hours identify each file to decide if it is one you want or not.  You will see that there are dozens of files...

The ZIP file containing the smaller ZIPs can be downloaded from this wetransfer link for 7 days:
https://we.tl/t-ma41oUgFd3

Each smaller ZIP file contains logically associated files.


EDIT:
While you are at it, the extended Notos design I did should perform almost as well as the Maxim designs.  This, while being 32 mm rather than 50 mm in diameter, but twice the length.  Also, the Maxim designs use about  three times the material to print. 

So, evaluating the extended Notos design against the Maxim designs for performance would be appreciated.  Here is the link to download the Notos extended STL:

Printing notes:
Note that all of these parts need to be printed standing on their front face (threaded end up), bore axis vertical; with supports turned off.  Failure to print in the correct orientation will produce a scrap part.  Ditto, if you print with supports turned on - because the supports will be trapped inside, and be unremovable. 

You can print at less than 100% infill, but then need to set the wall layer count up to 3 or 4, so the baffle walls are solid where they are thin.  The Maxim designs can be weight reduced by using 20% infill, with a 4 or 5 layer wall count because the curved shapes inside create a lot of areas with very thick walls.
