Nielsen Sonic 55

Ample volume
With its large volume, a Sonic 55 muffler will provide the greatest reduction in decibels on the larger calibers. It also has the capacity to attenuate even the largest magnum calibers. Not only is a Sonic 55 great, it is strong. This damper is suitable for all calibers from Cheytac .375 and down.

For calibers with a ball diameter of more than 9.5 mm, we make a special variation of our Sonic Ghost muffler, which can handle projectiles up to cal .458 – here it is not about the volume of the gunpowder gases, but about the actual hole size through the muffler

The steel cores
To make the damper as solid and durable as possible, this damper has been fitted with a steel core that ensures that the damper can withstand the high temperatures that occur when firing many shots within a short period of time.

Caliber recommendation

When choosing your muffler, it is important that you choose a muffler that fits the caliber you are using. On the graphic you can see which calibers can be shot through the muffler, as well as how well the amount of gunpowder can be handled by the muffler.

Sonic 55 is the largest muffler we produce. It is aimed at the largest calibers and for those who want the best possible attenuation. A Sonic 55 handles both .338 Lapua Magnum and .375 Chey Tac without any problems.

Due to the large volume of a Sonic 55, it is not produced for 6 mm calibers. For maximum attenuation on these calibers, we refer to the Nielsen Paradox 50 silencer.

Maintenance

Never shoot the pipe too hot. Feel free to give the muffler a puff WD40 or similar at the rear end before mounting and after disassembly. Especially if the muffler is used in humid weather.
Always allow the muffler to dry before placing it in storage.
Clean the muffler as needed, using only oil and a cloth. A ride on the shooting range where the muffler is shot moderately hot will also clean it of excess soot.
Avoid using alkaline cleaners, ultrasonic cleaners or brush and scrub cream.
If it is to remain possible to separate the muffler, it is recommended that you regularly separate all modules and apply a little new thread lubrication.
