About This Suppressor
The YHM Bad Larry is a stainless steel and Cobalt 6 rifle suppressor for .338-calibre rifles. It has an MSRP of $979.95. Yankee Hill Machine lists it as full-auto rated and compatible with cartridges including .338 Lapua Magnum and 8.6 BLK.
Its rear threads are the 1 3/8x24 HUB pattern, so YHM's HUB accessories fit, and it also takes YHM's Phantom and sRx quick-detach systems in 5/8x24. A 5/8x24 direct thread adapter and two suppressor wrenches come with it, so a rifle threaded 5/8x24 is covered as delivered, and those wrenches handle fitting the adapter. Any quick-detach mount is a separate purchase.
If you're cross-shopping, the Dead Air Nomax 33 has an MSRP of $1,299 and is titanium at 15.4 ounces with its adapter. The SureFire SOCOM338-Ti has an MSRP of $2,499 and is 9.9 inches and 22 ounces of titanium alloy. Of the three, the Bad Larry is the cheapest.
Strengths & Limitations
Pros
- A HUB rear thread plus YHM's own quick-detach systems, so the mount options are wide.
- A direct thread adapter and two wrenches come with it.
- Heat-treated 17-4 PH stainless steel with Cobalt 6, so the hot end is in a high-temperature alloy.
Cons
- Heavier than the titanium Nomax 33 on this list.
- At 7.375 inches and 1.75 inches across it is a large can on a sporter rifle.
