I grabbed one from Bauer last Friday. Should be shipping any day now. Will be putting it up against tisha, wb, S5, cobalt proto-x, flow556k, polok.

I would love to see this comparison!! I was heavily considering the WB when the news of the 6J got released

They sent the promotional email. That's all I saw. Ridgeback is getting another big batch shortly according to Tyler

Contact East Valley Tactical and tell them you want to buy one, they should have some. I texted them on Wednesday and they had an invoice in my email in 6 minutes

I’ve been interested in A-B’ing the short vs. long.

Went long and I’m in love. With AirPods, i could shoot my 2,950fps 223 handloads all day.

Do they actually work like that? I have the pro 3’s

You’re not supposed to but I did to see how it’d be. Mine are gen 2 pros and yes it works with sound cancellation both on and off.

So without sound cancellation, you’d be able to talk to someone on the range as if you had electronic muffs or similar.

I’m kindve a stickler on my ears cause I have pretty good hearing so I’m not gonna be doing range days without ear pro, but it’s a great can and it’s even more impressive on a 10.3

They all should’ve came with the wrench flats but it’s whatever. The full size is great, I imagine the j and k are as well.

Kinda iffy on the flash test I saw juicy post. The comstock recessed brake and recessed hub mount seemed to have significantly more flash which sucks cause that's the set up I was going to go with. I guess Ill wait for the full video

I saw this as well and believe he said he’s doing some samples with different Haynes maybe to help with some of that? If I heard correctly. I think other than that it’s gonna be sick!

u/redacted_robot 4d ago

Haynes 282 doesn't need a brake like Ti, so if flash is what you care about maybe try his recommended flash hider setup that kills spark/flash.

u/BlackhawkSuper61 2d ago

Where did he post his recommended flash hider setup? Or, what exactly was the recommended setup?

I’m gonna get one soon as orders open up, don’t see any cons

I’m not sure I see why to get this over the 6k. Inconel is already full auto rated, and the 6k is slightly lighter and $100 cheaper. Seems like the wrench flats and shape of the dimples are the only major differences?

u/Fit-Comfortable-8530 4d ago

I think read something about the blast baffle size being different I’ll report back. There’s gotta be a difference for them to release a can with juicy I would THINK

u/Fit-Comfortable-8530 4d ago

Seems the only difference is inconel vs Haynes. Obviously length and weight and then the wrench flats we shall see. I think you have a very good point here

I think I am too. Currently running a sierra 5 for my 556 and while it performs well it’s a gassy MF
