HI there ladies and gents,
I was hoping someone could shed some light on choosing a suitable suppressor for my Kral Puncher Nemesis. My question is, how do you know what size of a suppressor would appropriate apart from the caliber. My Nemesis fills to 250 bar and was ordered with both .22 and .25 calibers. I plan on buying a .25 Cal model to use for both. I just can't find any info on how much volume or what type of internals I need to look for to tame the bark.
Please, don't comment about any legalities, I've done my research. Thanks in advance.

As an example HW (~200mmx30mm) is very good at 12 fpe and works OK up to around 30 fpe. Over that you need more volume and sturdier internals. A&M Marksman (~225mmx38mm) is good for up to around 100 fpe and makes 150fpe .257 still comfortable to shoot. Assuming you will have around 45 fpe you want steel or aluminium tube inside (with baffles and felt construction) and larger than 30mm diameter OD. Monocore units in general have less internal volume and no dampening material so they are less efficient.

Howdy,
I have the Kral Bigmax in .22 and yes, out-of-the-box it has quite a BARK! I can confirm that a 6-inch long ldc that's the same diameter as the shroud works VERY well for me. The gun is now putting out about 37 fpe.
