Those look simple, but in metal, require a lot of machining. The look like they would be very effective!

PCP Baffle Help
- Thread starter ClarkT
- Start date
Just a note .. from my experience with factory shrouds n factory moderators... there is no need to re invent the wheel...the most quiet of all factory pcp at full power are the taipans .. deep cones shape baffles also work as air stripers stabilizing the pellet better...I would like a design like that for my coming in July prophet...there is the pic of the factory one..and the 3d printed ones..it looks like the length will fit the rti..
Thanks for sharing!
I'm waiting on a super strong material that should arrive next week. Then I'll test some of the designs I've seen, on this image, what are the separators with the measurements you have there?

Thanks Scott!
My magazines are simple but at least personally those are the ones I use too. I like I can have more shots too...
I'll keep working on these baffles too, if I can quiet the .25 to the point I don't need the can on front the rifle that will be very nice

Ohh it looks like those separators are part of the build... Will probably try this Taipan design, looks very interesting

I agree and I’m looking for as simple and effective as possible. I have some great ideas now thanks to you guys. Much appreciated

I’m thinking if there isn’t quite enough volume in the shroud, a short additional extension, like the first section of the Huma modular system may work to help.

BTB, thank you, I couldn’t remember that it was vetmx who had gone there already. Much appreciated.

you can use this file and manipulate it to what you need.... I designed it for Hatsan QE's but it can be sized for any gun as needed, it's also on Tinkercad

Make one of this. Super effective:
What is the material? Do you happen to have a drawing or file? That is unique, thank you

Thanks Kato I’m looking at it now

The torn man has made them out of aluminum and of kevlar.
I just take with me the length it has to have and the external tube or the shout for him to take measurements.

The pic is from a guy here in AGN really don't know who .. he was looking for replacement baffles for his taipan and another member 3d printed a set .. so the measurements in the pic are the factory taipan spacers .. but if there is 5" of space to accommodate that baffles in the RTI .. it would be great..

One of my Taipan VL .25 baffle cones was involved in a crushing incident (operator error, ME) and I replaced all of that after a well-known retailer asked for $80 for a replacement set.
A machinist buddy took Home Depot washers and got them concentric and a tight fit into the shroud. 1" aluminum tubing for spacers with a couple wraps of blue tape, DONE.
I can use the same components for adding to it and reversing the shroud. Very simple and just as effective, more maybe, than the stock components.

I have 3D printed baffles that are shaped just like this, just a simple cup with a hole and they work very well.

Howdy UCChris and Good Morning.
Glad you found a smart and easy way! I could not be happier than my current solution.

I can adapt my design to whatever dimensions you need and share the file if you have someone to print them. I started using these in the oem FX can and they are so much quieter than the expensive aftermarket suppressors, even on my 132 fpe .30 impact.

Thank you for the offer. The ID of my shroud is .80” Otherwise, I’d just scale the rest of the dimensions I assume?
Thanks again!

I see that someone provided a link to when I was battling with my first Priest and was experimenting with Mrod baffles. Here’s a link to what’s in my current Priest. It’s very quiet. The gun has evolved since then but what I use to silence it still remains the same.https://www.airgunnation.com/topic/priest-slug-project/?view=all

and my testing begin...
here you see a cone that was based on the STL provided @BigTinBoat, thanks buddy! The design is mine, I just got the idea from the files you sent me. I added a few holes to the cone, my idea is restrict the amount of air that goes to the next "chamber" but start reducing that amount little by little... I don't know if that will work or not but I think it will help... I'll test with and without the holes...
The other two things you see there are two separators, I'm testing with one with a flat base that could be use as the first baffle too, I'm testing... I'll keep this post updated with my progress.
Ohh, I've received the super strong material and these are going to be printed with it... I remember I was playing once with PLA and after 3 shots the cones were ground meet inside my shroud LOL... I hope this will be strong enough now that I have that strong plastic.
