I just received my Edgun Behemoth moderator with the 1/2-UNF fitting and put it into my Taipan Mutant. It is super quiet, but is clipping badly and accuracy is crap. Not what I was expecting, but what can you do? I think the Tri-lug mount may need to be checked. Or the hole on the end cap opened up slightly. Disappointing.

You make them big enough and long enough, they clip.
Not familiar with the rifle if you are attaching it to a shroud and the shroud is not well supported you will get clipping.

What you can do is A) determine WHY it's clipping & rectify it. B) open up exit hole SLIGHTLY as you mentioned C) if mounted on SHROUD see if you can mount directly on BARREL if it's 12/20 unf threaded. OF COURSE accuracy is crap if it's clipping. That's a no brainer!

Too bad.
What is the size and weight of that thing? I believe you can remove sections, did you try making it smaller by chance?
I have a huma mod40 compact on a compact with no problems.

I'm not familiar with it either, but looked up some pictures. The shroud on them does not bottom out on the receiver, just like my Uragan. With my Uragan, that left the shroud not well supported to put it mildly. Putting on the light Uragan moderator on the end of the shroud made it droop, with the huge exit hole of the Uragan moderator, it didn't clip but was very close to it and created issues with accuracy just from the uneven flow of air around the pellet as it was exiting the moderator. I just put a nylon spacer between the end of the shroud and the frame, allowing it to act as a second point of contact when screwing the shroud on with tension against the receiver, stiffened it right up and no more problem putting a moderator on end of shroud. If things are out of square, this could make it worse so need to check.

I have the 7 stack on my L2. No clipping. The exit hole is 7 mm for the 5,5 mm. That leaves you with 0,75 mm play.. So a 30 cm silencer it has to sit straight.. One of the reasons the Behemoth is so silent is..The dia. of the exit hole ..Often they can be 8 or even 9 mm. in other brands.

Interestingly enough, there is no more .25 caliber Behemoth, there is only a .177/22 version and a .25/.30 version. The .25 version has been discontinued because (according to Ed) there was no significant difference in sound with the .30 caliber can on a .25 cal barrel... so it's not the exit hole.

I ran moderators on my tapian 22 and 25 cals with the schroud and with out scroud with no issues , but if you got 25/30 cal one the hole should be plenty big It is possible your adapter isnt square ? I never had a shroud be not lined up and I have had over 6 taipans , where did it clip just at end or hit inside also ? but you can remove schroud . shere did you get the adapter for 1/2 20 ? i used donnys on all my guns with no issue

1,24 mm makes no significant difference.. Well it depends on his definition of significant.. It will be significant in my ears..
