SilencerCo’s first all-titanium suppressor is built around one number: 7.3 ounces. Here’s what that buys, what it gives up, and when a different can is the better call.
The SilencerCo Scythe Ti is the company’s first suppressor built entirely from titanium, and at 7.3 ounces as SilencerCo lists it, it’s one of the lightest .30 caliber cans you can hang on a hunting rifle. That weight is the whole pitch, and it’s a real one: a rifle that carries and balances close to how it did before the suppressor went on. The catch is written into SilencerCo’s own manual. The Scythe Ti isn’t rated for full-auto, and SilencerCo doesn’t recommend excessive rapid fire through it, because high rates of fire can damage the titanium. Weight is what you’re buying; heat tolerance is what you’re paying with. There’s also something most coverage skips: SilencerCo’s own documents publish different decibel figures for this can. Below, we sort out what those numbers actually say, what the Scythe Ti costs to own, and when the Omega 300, Nomad Ti OTB, or Razor762 is the better answer.
The verdict: Buy the SilencerCo Scythe Ti if your .30 caliber rifle is a bolt gun or a slow-firing semi-auto that you carry more than you shoot, and ounces at the muzzle genuinely matter to you. At around $754 on Guns.com against a $1,174 MSRP, it’s the lightest of the four cans we compared on each maker’s published figures. The honest catch is pace: if you plan on fast strings from an AR-10 or a short-barreled rifle, a heavier full-auto-rated can is the better tool.
Before weighing that verdict, here’s what it rests on.
How We Evaluated It
This review draws on SilencerCo’s product page, spec sheet, and Scythe Series field manual, current Guns.com pricing, industry reviews, and owner feedback, with each competitor’s specifications taken from its own manufacturer. Every suppressor here has a published manufacturer spec sheet, which is our minimum bar for inclusion. Firsthand observations from other reviewers and owners are identified as such throughout. Sound figures are manufacturer-published and measured under each company’s own conditions, so they are not directly comparable across brands.
SilencerCo Scythe Ti vs. the Alternatives
The standard Scythe Ti is SKU SU5328 in SilencerCo’s oil-dipped Type II anodized finish. SilencerCo also offers a black version exclusively through Silencer Shop, but that’s a finish option rather than a different performance tier, so there’s no version ladder to climb. The real decision is whether you want the Scythe Ti’s ultralight construction or one of three alternatives that each fix a specific Scythe Ti limitation.
| Suppressor | Price | Weight | Length | Full-Auto Rated | Rated To | Barrel Limits |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SilencerCo Scythe Ti | ~$754 | 7.3 oz | 6.16″ | No | .300 RUM | None |
| SilencerCo Omega 300 DTM | ~$598 | 12.6 oz | 6.98″ | Yes | .300 WM | 7″ .300 BLK, 10″ 5.56, 16″ 7.62 NATO, 20″ magnums |
| Rugged Razor762 | ~$715 | 15.3 oz | 6.4″ | Yes | .300 RUM | None |
| Dead Air Nomad Ti OTB | ~$926 (FDE) | 10.5 oz | 7.65″ (adds 4.6″) | No | .300 RUM, 7mm Backcountry | 12.5″ 5.56; 16″ .300 RUM and 7mm Backcountry |
| Weights and lengths are manufacturer figures, and each maker defines what’s included a little differently. Prices are approximate Guns.com pricing and change frequently. | ||||||
The Omega 300 DTM is the same company’s do-everything can for about $156 less. It’s full-auto rated and heavier by 5.3 ounces, which makes it the answer for anyone who wants one suppressor that won’t mind an AR-10.
The Rugged Razor762 is a near price peer at around $715. It trades roughly eight ounces of extra weight for a stainless and Cobalt 6 build that Rugged rates for belt-fed use with no barrel length restrictions.
The Dead Air Nomad Ti OTB costs about $172 more and weighs 3.2 ounces more. What it buys is length: its blast chamber slides back over the barrel, and Dead Air says it adds only 4.6 inches to the rifle.
For the wider field, our best rifle suppressors guide ranks nine rifle cans by the job each one does best, with the Scythe Ti as its lightweight pick.
If the basic specs already settle the decision for you, the table above has the essentials. If you’re still weighing it, the rest of the review is organized below.

What the Scythe Ti Does Well
It keeps the rifle feeling like the rifle. At 7.3 ounces, the Scythe Ti is 5.3 ounces lighter than SilencerCo’s own Omega 300 and about half the published weight of the steel Razor762. On a mountain rifle that already weighs under seven pounds, that difference shows up in balance and in how the rifle swings, not just on a scale. Hunters who carry far and shoot a few rounds per trip are the buyers this can was designed for, and SilencerCo’s product page says as much by describing it as built with bolt-action rifles in mind.
It posts lower published figures than the heavier Omega 300. You might expect the lighter can to be the louder one. On the hosts SilencerCo’s current spec sheets share, it isn’t: SilencerCo lists the Scythe Ti lower than the Omega 300 on 5.56 from a 16-inch AR, .308 from a 20-inch bolt gun, and .300 Win Mag from a 24-inch bolt gun. The Omega 300 is quieter on .300 BLK from an 8.5-inch AR. Our Omega 300 review lays out the full comparison.
It has no barrel length restrictions and a .300 RUM ceiling. That’s broader than the Omega 300, which SilencerCo warranties only down to specific barrel lengths and rates only through .300 Win Mag. If you own a short .308 or a long-action magnum, the Scythe Ti covers both on paper. The limit it does carry is rate of fire, not barrel length or cartridge, and that distinction matters when you read the issues section below.
No barrel restriction is not the same as no heat limit. The Scythe Ti is rated for short barrels, but short barrels and fast shooting both drive heat up, and heat is the one thing SilencerCo asks you to manage with this can.
It lives in the Bravo ecosystem. The Scythe Ti uses SilencerCo’s Bravo mounting pattern, the same family of direct-thread mounts, ASR quick-detach mounts, Thread Over Mounts, and front caps used by the Omega 300 and Hybrid 46. If you already own a Bravo-compatible SilencerCo can, the muzzle devices on your other rifles may already work with this one. Verify each part number against SilencerCo’s fit list before assuming it does. SilencerCo’s Bravo rear thread is also the industry-standard 1.375×24 HUB pattern, so compatible third-party HUB mounting systems work too.
It’s ready for a typical .30 cal bolt gun out of the box. SilencerCo ships it with a 5/8×24 titanium direct-thread mount and the Single-Port Anchor Brake already installed. If your hunting rifle is threaded 5/8×24 with a proper shoulder, nothing else needs to be bought. SilencerCo says the Anchor Brake reduces recoil while keeping overall length short, and reviewers at Shooting Illustrated reported the can shooting smoothly and holding tight groups with it installed.

SilencerCo’s Own Sound Numbers Don’t Agree
Most Scythe Ti coverage repeats one set of decibel figures. SilencerCo actually publishes three, across its product page, its spec sheet, and its Scythe Series field manual, and they don’t match. Two of the gaps are large enough to change how you’d think about the can on a magnum.
| Caliber | Product Page | Spec Sheet | Field Manual |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5.56 NATO | 129.5 dB | 129.5 dB (16″ AR) | 128.9 dB (16″ AR) |
| .300 BLK | 127.6 dB | 127.6 dB (8.5″ AR) | 118.6 dB (16″ bolt) |
| .308 Win | 132.5 dB | 128.4 dB (20″ bolt) | 132.6 dB (20″ bolt) |
| .300 Win Mag | 132.9 dB | 132.9 dB (24″ bolt) | 137.2 dB (24″ bolt) |
| .300 RUM | Not listed | Not listed | 138.7 dB (24″ bolt) |
| Muzzle averages as published by SilencerCo. The product page does not list host rifles. | |||
The .300 BLK gap is explainable: the spec sheet’s figure comes from an 8.5-inch AR and the manual’s from a 16-inch bolt gun, so those two numbers describe different setups. The .300 Win Mag gap is harder to explain. Both documents cite a 24-inch bolt gun, yet the product page and spec sheet list 132.9 dB while the manual lists 137.2 dB for the Scythe Ti. In that same manual, 132.9 dB is the figure given for the heavier Scythe STM in its long configuration. The .308 figures show a similar spread, from 128.4 to 132.6 dB.
We can’t tell you which document is right, and we won’t pick the more flattering number. What we can say is that SilencerCo’s own published range for the Scythe Ti on .300 Win Mag runs from 132.9 to 137.2 dB, and on .308 from 128.4 to 132.6 dB.
The field manual also compares the Scythe Ti directly against the stainless Scythe STM on matching hosts. Using the manual’s figures, the STM in long configuration is about 4 dB quieter on both .308 and .300 Win Mag. That’s worth emphasizing because SilencerCo publishes different figures elsewhere; its separate Scythe comparison puts the two much closer. Yet another reason not to treat any single published dB figure as absolute.
What to do with this
If you’re buying mainly for a magnum hunting rifle, plan around the manual’s more conservative figures. And treat any decibel comparison between the Scythe Ti and another brand’s can as rough at best, since each company measures under its own conditions. Where standardized independent testing exists, such as PEW Science, it’s the better basis for cross-brand comparison.
Known Issues
Most of the items below are documented design limitations rather than defects. One separate concern is worth noting: there are recurring owner reports of Scythe Ti suppressors separating at welds. Those reports don’t establish a failure rate, and SilencerCo’s current recall page does not list the Scythe Ti, but the reports are significant enough to disclose.
Scythe Ti Limitations to Know Before Buying
- There are owner-reported weld failures. Multiple Scythe Ti owners have reported suppressors separating at a weld, including on bolt-action rifles and outside obvious rapid-fire use, and many of the published reports involve magnum cartridges such as .300 PRC and 7mm PRC. These are owner reports rather than a controlled failure-rate study, so we can’t say how common the problem is. SilencerCo’s current recall checker does not list the Scythe Ti, and the company’s lifetime warranty remains an important part of the ownership equation.
- “No barrel restrictions means I can run it hard.” Not with this can. The Scythe Ti is not rated for full-auto fire, and SilencerCo’s manual states that it does not recommend excessive rapid firing, because titanium is rated to handle only about 800 degrees and high rates of fire could damage the material. That’s SilencerCo’s published heat warning, and it’s worth taking seriously. Fast strings from an AR-10 or SBR are better suited to the Omega 300 or Razor762.
- It’s sealed. The Scythe Ti is fully welded, so there’s no taking it apart to scrub baffles. SilencerCo warns against shooting ammunition with unjacketed lead bullets because the lead deposits inside can’t be effectively removed.
- Cleaning is limited by design. SilencerCo says not to run patches through the bore, since they can lodge in the suppressor and cause damage on firing, and not to use chlorine or acetone products on it. A brush through the bore and a wiped-down exterior is the extent of routine care.
- Magnum suppression may trail the heavier STM. In SilencerCo’s field manual, the Scythe Ti measures about 4 dB louder than the Scythe STM long configuration on .308 and .300 Win Mag, though SilencerCo’s separate Scythe comparison puts the two much closer. Lighter is the point, and some magnum suppression may be part of the price.
- The front of the can must stay dressed. SilencerCo states that firing the Scythe without the Anchor Brake or a SilencerCo front cap will void the warranty. Don’t pull the brake to save a fraction of an ounce.
- Out of the box it only fits 5/8×24. The included mount is 5/8×24 direct thread. A 1/2×28 barrel needs a different Bravo mount, and quick-detach use across several rifles needs an ASR or TOM mount plus a muzzle device on each rifle.
The pattern across that list is the thread running through this whole review: weight is what you’re buying, and heat tolerance and serviceability are what you’re paying with. For a hunter who fires a handful of rounds per trip, that’s a very good trade. For a high-volume range shooter, it isn’t.
Who Should Skip the Scythe Ti
Each of these objections has a better answer, and every one of those answers is in the next section.
Skip the Scythe Ti If…
- You want one .30 cal can that will also live on a fast-shooting AR → SilencerCo Omega 300 DTM, full-auto rated and about $156 less
- Your rifle is a short-barreled or hard-use semi-auto → Rugged Razor762, belt-fed rated with no barrel restrictions
- Length past the muzzle bothers you more than weight → Dead Air Nomad Ti OTB, which Dead Air says adds just 4.6 inches
- You’re shopping for a pistol or rimfire can → our 9mm suppressor guide or .22 suppressor guide
The Alternatives in Detail
Three alternatives, three different objections. The price relationships matter here, because none of these is simply the cheaper version of the Scythe Ti.
SilencerCo Omega 300 DTM: The Do-Everything Can
Who this is for: the shooter who wants one .30 cal suppressor for a hunting rifle and an AR-10, and doesn’t want to think about pace.
The Omega 300 (SKU SU5400, which SilencerCo’s product page labels the Omega 300 DT) is the Scythe Ti’s in-house counterpoint. SilencerCo bills it as the best-selling suppressor in history. It’s full-auto rated, built from 17-4 stainless and Grade 9 titanium with a Cobalt 6 blast baffle, and shares the same Bravo mounting system, so muzzle devices and mounts carry over between the two.
The tradeoffs run in both directions. The Omega weighs 12.6 ounces, 5.3 more than the Scythe Ti, and SilencerCo rates it only through .300 Win Mag. It also carries barrel minimums: SilencerCo warranties it down to 7 inches on .300 BLK, 10 inches on 5.56, 16 inches on 7.62 NATO, and 20 inches on magnums. So the Omega is the more durable can, but on paper the Scythe Ti actually covers more barrels and more cartridges, and SilencerCo’s own spec sheets put the Scythe Ti lower on 5.56, .308, and .300 Win Mag. The Omega’s clear sound advantage is .300 BLK from a short AR. At around $598, the Omega is also the least expensive can in this comparison. If you’re buying a used one, note that SilencerCo recalled Omega 300s made between June 1 and October 9, 2023, for a weld defect, so check the serial number on SilencerCo’s recall checker. Our full Omega 300 review covers it in depth.

Rugged Razor762: The Hard-Use Price Peer
Who this is for: the owner of a short-barreled or semi-auto .308 who wants a compact can that can take heat.
At around $715, the Razor762 costs almost exactly what the Scythe Ti does, so this is a genuine coin flip decided by how you shoot. Rugged machines it from heat-treated 17-4 stainless with fully welded Cobalt 6 baffles, rates it for belt-fed use with no barrel length restrictions, and covers it up to .300 RUM. It mounts with Rugged’s Dual Taper Lock system and ships with an M2 brake in 5/8×24. Rugged also backs it with an unconditional lifetime warranty.
The cost is weight. At 15.3 ounces, the Razor762 is roughly twice the Scythe Ti’s published figure, which is exactly the burden a backcountry hunter is trying to avoid. It’s also a different mounting system, so it won’t share muzzle devices with SilencerCo Bravo cans. Our Rugged suppressors guide covers the rest of the lineup.

Dead Air Nomad Ti OTB: When Length Matters More Than Weight
Who this is for: the bolt-gun hunter who hates how far a suppressor sticks past the muzzle and will pay for a shorter rifle.
The Nomad Ti OTB is the direct titanium competitor, with one very different idea. Its blast chamber extends rearward over the barrel, so while the body measures 7.65 inches, Dead Air says it adds just 4.6 inches to the rifle’s overall length and 10.5 ounces to its weight. SilencerCo publishes the Scythe Ti’s total length rather than an added-length figure, so the exact difference depends on thread engagement, but the OTB is designed specifically to minimize what hangs out front. Dead Air rates it to .300 RUM and 7mm Backcountry and includes a 5/8×24 Xeno radial brake.
The OTB carries more fine print than the Scythe Ti. Dead Air lists barrel minimums of 12.5 inches for 5.56 and 16 inches for .300 RUM and 7mm Backcountry, and describes the design as suited to barrels up to 1 inch in diameter, so check your contour first. It’s also incompatible with Browning’s Xeno Recoil Hawg muzzle brake family. Like the Scythe Ti, it isn’t full-auto rated. At around $926 for the FDE version, it’s the premium choice here, roughly $172 more than the Scythe Ti.
Watch the name when shopping. The OTB and the Nomad Ti XC are different suppressors with different lengths, weights, and mounts, and the OTB itself sells in more than one finish at different prices. The link below goes to the FDE version (part number NOMADTIOTFDE), and our Dead Air suppressors guide covers the rest of the Nomad family.

What the Scythe Ti Actually Costs
The can is the biggest line item, but not always the only one. Whether you spend anything beyond it depends on your barrel threads and on whether you want to move the can between rifles.
| Item | Approx. Cost | When You Need It |
|---|---|---|
| Scythe Ti (SU5328) | ~$754 street | Always |
| Federal NFA transfer tax | $0 | Reduced to $0 for suppressors effective January 1, 2026 |
| Titanium Bravo Direct Thread Mount, 1/2×28 (AC5320) | $114 MSRP | If your barrel is threaded 1/2×28 instead of 5/8×24 |
| Bravo ASR Mount (AC824) plus ASR muzzle device | $139 to $162 once, plus $94 MSRP per rifle | For quick-detach use; the mount stays on the can, each rifle needs its own muzzle device |
| Bravo TOM (AC5230) plus TOMD radial brake | $109 to $119 once, plus $94 MSRP per rifle | An alternative quick-detach route, same one-mount, device-per-rifle logic |
| Accessory prices are SilencerCo MSRP. Dealer transfer fees and barrel threading vary by shop. Verify all pricing before purchase. | ||
The pricing gap worth noticing is the can itself. SilencerCo lists a $1,174 MSRP, and Guns.com was listing it around $754 at the time of writing. A discount that deep may not hold, so check the current price rather than assuming it.
For a hunter with a single 5/8×24 bolt gun, no additional mounting hardware is required. Converting to ASR or TOM costs roughly $200 to $260 to set up the suppressor and first host, because the mount stays on the suppressor and is a one-time purchase. Each additional quick-detach rifle generally needs only another compatible muzzle device, at about $94 MSRP. If a second rifle just has a different thread pitch and you stay with direct thread, you may need only the matching Bravo direct-thread mount. If spreading that cost out helps, our gun financing guide covers how suppressor financing works.
Legal and Process Note
Suppressors remain federally regulated items even with the transfer tax removed. Unless your purchase is covered by the August 2026 court injunction, the Form 4 process still applies. For buyers and transactions covered by the injunction, some dealers in 27 states without separate state NFA-registration requirements are transferring suppressors using a standard Form 4473 and NICS check rather than a Form 4. The injunction is not nationwide, and coverage depends on the buyer, seller, transaction, and applicable state law, so ask your dealer which process applies. For Form 4 buyers, ATF’s July 2026 data put individual eForm 4 approvals at roughly 9 days on average, while trust applications averaged around 33 days. State laws also vary, and some states prohibit civilian suppressor ownership entirely. Our suppressors guide tracks the latest on the case. This is information, not legal advice.
Living With the Scythe Ti
Ownership Reality
The Scythe Ti is light enough to forget on a sling, but it sets the pace at the bench. It’s a can for deliberate shots with time between strings, not a can for burning through a case of ammo in an afternoon.
Routine care is minimal, mostly because there isn’t much you can do to a sealed titanium can. SilencerCo’s manual says the Scythe Series typically requires limited maintenance: clean the mounts periodically with a standard gun solvent and a brush, and run a cleaning brush through the bore if needed to remove light fouling. For the exterior, SilencerCo recommends Kwikseal or another rust-preventive firearm lubricant on a microfiber towel, with the caveat that lubricants may change the color of the Scythe Ti’s oil-dipped anodized finish.
The don’ts matter more than the dos. No patches through the bore, no chlorine or acetone products, no unjacketed lead bullets, and no firing without the Anchor Brake or a SilencerCo front cap installed.
Mounting Checklist
SilencerCo’s manual stresses that the mount must be fully shouldered on the barrel with no visible gap, and it recommends checking that the suppressor is still secure after 30 discharges. If you move to ASR muzzle devices, SilencerCo calls for torquing them to roughly 20 to 30 ft-lbs with Rocksett or another high-temperature threadlocker, and using shims rather than crush washers to time the device. The can will be hot after firing, so use heat-resistant gloves before removing it.
Because the Scythe Ti can’t be disassembled, the ownership decision that matters most is made before you ever mount it: pick the right mounting system for how many rifles you’ll run it on. If it’s one bolt gun, the included direct-thread mount is all you need. If you plan to move it between hosts, set up the Bravo ASR or TOM system from the start.
SilencerCo Scythe Ti FAQ
Is the SilencerCo Scythe Ti full-auto rated?
No. SilencerCo states that the Scythe Ti is not rated for full-auto fire, and its manual also advises against excessive rapid firing because high rates of fire could damage the titanium. If you need a full-auto-rated .30 cal can, the Omega 300 or Rugged Razor762 is the better fit.
Have Scythe Ti suppressors failed?
Some owners have reported Scythe Ti suppressors separating at a weld, including on bolt-action rifles, and many of the published reports involve magnum cartridges. These are owner reports rather than a measured failure rate, so we can’t say how common the problem is. SilencerCo’s current recall checker does not list the Scythe Ti, and the can is covered by SilencerCo’s lifetime warranty.
Can I put the Scythe Ti on a 5.56 AR?
SilencerCo rates it from .223 Rem/5.56 NATO up through .300 RUM, with no barrel restrictions, and publishes 5.56 figures from a 16-inch AR. Most 5.56 ARs are threaded 1/2×28, though, so you’d need a 1/2×28 Bravo mount instead of the included 5/8×24 mount. SilencerCo’s rapid-fire warning still applies on an AR, so keep strings deliberate.
Can I clean the Scythe Ti myself?
Only lightly. It’s a sealed, fully welded suppressor, so there are no baffles to remove. SilencerCo recommends a brush through the bore for light fouling, solvent and a brush on the mounts, and a rust-preventive lubricant on the exterior. Don’t run patches through it, and don’t use chlorine or acetone products.
Can I shoot cast lead bullets through the Scythe Ti?
No. SilencerCo warns against ammunition with unjacketed lead bullets in its sealed suppressors, because the lead deposits inside can’t be effectively removed.
Will my Omega 300 or Hybrid 46 mounts fit the Scythe Ti?
They’re in the same Bravo family. SilencerCo lists the Scythe Ti as compatible with Bravo direct-thread mounts, the Bravo ASR mount, the Bravo Thread Over Mount, and Bravo front caps, the same accessory family used by the Omega 300 and Hybrid 46. Confirm the specific part number against SilencerCo’s fit list before assuming a given mount works.
Is the Scythe Ti quieter than the Omega 300?
On most shared hosts, yes, by SilencerCo’s own figures. Its spec sheets put the Scythe Ti lower on 5.56 from a 16-inch AR, .308 from a 20-inch bolt gun, and .300 Win Mag from a 24-inch bolt gun, while the Omega 300 is quieter on .300 BLK from an 8.5-inch AR. These are manufacturer figures, not independent measurements.
What’s the difference between the Scythe Ti and Scythe STM?
The STM is the stainless sibling. SilencerCo builds it from 17-4 stainless steel, rates it for full-auto with no barrel restrictions, and makes it modular: roughly 5.1 inches and 10.4 ounces short, or 6.9 inches and 14.7 ounces long. The Ti is the lighter can; the STM is the one built for harder use.
Can I remove the Anchor Brake to save weight?
Not without consequences. SilencerCo states that firing the Scythe without the Anchor Brake or a SilencerCo front cap negates the benefit of using a silencer and voids the warranty. You can swap the brake for a compatible SilencerCo front cap, but something has to be installed.
How long does it take to get a Scythe Ti?
That depends on which process your purchase falls under. Unless your purchase is covered by the August 2026 court injunction, the Form 4 process still applies, and ATF’s July 2026 data put individual eForm 4 approvals at roughly 9 days on average. For buyers and transactions covered by the injunction, some dealers in 27 states without separate state NFA-registration requirements are transferring suppressors on a standard Form 4473 instead. Coverage depends on the buyer, seller, transaction, and state law, so ask your dealer which process applies.
Bottom Line
If you hunt with a .30 cal bolt gun and count every ounce you carry, the SilencerCo Scythe Ti is the can built for you. It’s the lightest of the four here, covers every barrel length through .300 RUM, and at current street pricing sits well under its MSRP.
If you want one suppressor for a hunting rifle and a fast-shooting AR, the Omega 300 DTM costs less, shares the same Bravo mounts, and is full-auto rated. You’ll carry 5.3 more ounces for that flexibility.
If your rifle is a short-barreled or hard-use semi-auto, the Rugged Razor762 is the price peer built to take heat, at roughly twice the weight.
If the length hanging past the muzzle bothers you more than the ounces, the Dead Air Nomad Ti OTB is the premium answer, as long as your barrel contour and length fit its limits.
The whole decision comes back to one trade. Weight is what the Scythe Ti sells you; heat tolerance is what it costs. If you shoot the way a hunter shoots, that’s one of the better bargains in rifle suppressors right now, especially while the street price sits this far below MSRP.
