Thunder Beast Arms Ultra 9 CB Gen 2 .30 CAL & 6.5MM *Free Shipping*

Lightweight Precision Rifle Suppressor, 9 inch.

Available in two versions: .30 cal, and 6.5 mm cal

The second-generation ULTRA 9 ("Gen2") superseded the original model on November 10th, 2020. The ULTRA 9 Gen2 is quieter and lighter than the original version. The official model ("ULTRA 9") does not change. Gen2 Ultra 9s can be identified by serial numbers that are higher than C40000 or by the visual changes.

The ULTRA 9 is our full-size precision rifle suppressor. It is best for applications where maximum suppression is key. The ULTRA 9 is available in .30 caliber and 6.5 mm caliber. The .30 caliber version is best for maximum flexibility for .223 up to .300 RUM. The 6.5 mm caliber version optimizes suppression performance on 6.5 mm and smaller calibers.

The .30 cal ULTRA 9 Gen2 meters at 135 dB (milspec left/right) and 123 dB at shooter's-ear1, shooting full-power (hot) M118LR ammunition from a 20" AI AX. Compared to the original, the Gen2 is about 2 dB quieter at the muzzle and 5 dB quieter at the shooter's ear.

The 6.5 mm cal ULTRA 9 Gen2 meters at 131 dB (milspec left/right) and 121 dB at shooter's-ear1, shooting Hornady 140gr ammunition from a 24" AI AX. Compared to the original 6.5 mm version, the Gen2 is about 2 dB quieter at the muzzle and 2 dB quieter at the shooter's ear.

We now specify the dB rating as a single number for the specified weapon-ammo configuration due to the long-term consistency of the B&K PULSE system. The numbers for the milspec-left/right mic position are very consistent. "Shooter's ear" (SE) numbers are a little more variable and should be considered with a margin of +/- 2 dB. These should be considered the "reference" numbers compared to anything published previously -- please see our youtube videos.

The ULTRA 9 Gen2 weighs 10.0 ounces (1.9 ounces lighter than the Gen1).

ULTRA SERIES
The ULTRA Gen2 series represents a revolutionary improvement in titanium precision rifle suppressors. We took everything we've learned over the last decade building the best precision rifle suppressors in the world and put it into the ULTRA design. The ULTRA series offers unprecedented light weight and class-leading suppression levels.

Compared to the original ULTRA series, the ULTRA Gen2 is on average 2 dB quieter and about 20% lighter. Strength and caliber ratings are the same.

The .30 caliber ULTRA series includes three suppressors: 9-inch, 7-inch, and 5-inch versions are available. They are available in either our Compact Brake (CB) Mount (a "thread over muzzle brake" type mount) or in a direct thread mount.

The CB mount and direct thread mount have equivalent accuracy and repeatability.

With the CB mount, the suppressor mates to a conical shoulder on the brake and locks up rock solid and extremely tight. In direct thread configuration, the ULTRA suppressors use a heat-treated 17-4 thread insert and initial blast shield. The ULTRA series suppressors also have the flexibility to be changed from direct thread to CB mount and vice versa via a simple factory service operation, in case your needs change. This is accomplished by removing or replacing the default brake from the direct thread version.

Like the original, the Gen2 ULTRA is all-titanium and is fully welded. The Gen2 is now a "tubeless" design, with the baffles joined directly with no separate tube. This material and construction provide a great strength to weight ratio. It can take whatever your precision rifle can dish out.
