Thunder Beast Arms Ultra 7 Gen 2 .264cal HUB Interface Black Suppressor

Buy Thunder Beast Arms Co. Suppressor's from BattleHawk Armory!

This suppressor uses Thunder Beast Arms' HUB interface mounting system.  It is not sold with a HUB mount.

• This is so you can select the correct HUB mount to match the threads on your barrel or,
• If you have a suitable mount from another manufacturer you would not need a HUB mount for this suppressor (See HUB Interface Disclaimer Below)

The second-generation ULTRA 7 ("Gen2") superseded the original model on November 10th, 2020. The ULTRA 7 Gen2 is quieter and lighter than the original version. The official model ("ULTRA 7") does not change. Gen2 Ultra 7s can be identified by serial numbers that are higher than C40000 or by the visual changes.

The ULTRA 7 is our highly efficient compact precision rifle suppressor. It is best for applications where a compact form factor is important but excellent suppression is still required. The ULTRA 7 6.5 mm caliber version optimizes suppression performance on 6.5 mm and smaller calibers.

The 6.5 mm cal ULTRA 7 Gen2 meters at 137 dB (milspec left/right) and 126 dB at shooter's-ear, shooting Hornady 140 gr ammunition from a 24" AI AX. Compared to the original, the Gen2 is about 1 dB quieter at the muzzle and 1 dB quieter at the shooter's ear.

We now specify the dB rating as a single number due to the long-term consistency of the B&K PULSE system. These should be considered the "reference" numbers compared to anything published previously.

The ULTRA 7 Gen2 weighs 8.0 ounces (1.7 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.

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.

The ULTRA Gen2 baffle stack was completely redesigned, but retains the principles that made the original ULTRA (and 30P-1 stack before that) such a great precision and long-range suppressor. Thunder Beast Arms Corp suppressors have racked up impressive results at long-range field shooting events nationwide, and have been the most popular suppressor used in the Precision Rifle Series (top 50 competitors) for many years running.

Many long-range shooters prefer shooting suppressed because the muzzle blast and concussion is eliminated, while the recoil impulse is reduced and smoothed out over time. The net result is that the rifle is easier to shoot and it's easier to make hits. Communication with your spotter is easier because the need for hearing protection is reduced.

HUB Interface Disclaimer

The HUB interface version of this suppressor is meant for advanced users who are familiar with HUB-compatible mounts and know how to use their choice of HUB mounting system in a secure, reliable, and repeatable manner. If you get the HUB version, you should know what you're doing. Everything behind the suppressor body is your responsibility.

Thunder Beast Arms is not responsible for damage caused to this suppressor by another manufacturer's HUB mount system, through its use, misuse, incompatibilities, or any other reason related to the mounting system.

For Thunder Beast Arms' part, they will guarantee that the HUB interface is correct and the suppressor will have acceptably-low runout when mounted on a TBAC reference HUB/DT interface.

For the Ultra 7, the HUB version has a slightly larger outer diameter (OD) at the rear of the suppressor to accomodate the 1.375" internal threads, compared to the normal CB versions. For the Magnus and the Dominus, the stepped-down section at the rear of the suppressor is slightly larger OD compared to the CB version (but smaller than the SR version).

Material Properties

The Ultras were designed to be the "ultimate" lightweight precision rifle suppressor. This means we used materials to meet those goals. Titanium, even Grade 5, is ultimately limited by temperature. The Ultras are very strong but excursions above 800 degrees are not good for the material. If you take it far enough above 1000 degrees, it will get too weak to sustain the blast and you would eventually get a failure. We recommend keeping the Ultra series less than 800 degrees.

Full auto by itself does not really increase the pressure or stress on the can, it's the heat energy input in combination. Full auto or bursts would be fine on an Ultra as long as the material temperature does not exceed that 800 degree safety mark. In our testing, one magazine fired rapid (mag-dump) from from an AR-10 or AR-15 does not exceed 800 degrees. Keep in mind this is firing at a full-auto-like rate. At that point you'd just have to let it cool. The second magazine may or may not cause it to exceed it depending on ambient conditions, loads, barrel length, etc. A shorter barrel will cause more heat input into the suppressor and its temperature will rise faster.
