I've been on a quest for a flow through 30 cal can for a bit now, already having a 762-RC2. Been looking at flow 762 ti (ideally wait for a non-ti version) or CAT ODB. However, just looked into the SLX line from Sig and it seems to check all the boxes for me. The main one that I am considering now is the SLX762C, but there is little to no info on the SLX cans. Anyone here run them and can comment on sound/build/feel etc?

No idea. Have never seen any out in the wild, nor have I ever seen one in stock online.

Shooting a SLX556C side by side with an HX-QD 556K they sound nearly identical while on the firing line about a meter off. The HX-QD 556K *might* be a touch quieter.

I have most of them. They are solid performers and are made very well. The SLH300 is my favorite for 300blk. The SLX762 is great for supersonic rounds.
The are a bit pricier and heavier than I would like, but otherwise I’m a fan. The mounting system is one of my favorites.

I only ran the full size 556, and it was loud. The guy relating the 762k sounds like hux’s hxqd k is probably accurate.
I don’t think that sound performance is good for the money. Like Goloud said the mount is really nice but it weighs a good bit, and thats kind of the hidden cost of the mount. Durable loud cans with nice mounts. |

If so how does it sound. |

Durable loud cans with nice mounts. The full size seems pretty hefty, but the 762C seems to meet all the needs I have. The 762C weights 12.6oz for an inconel can at just over 5 inches. Sound isn't my main focus, but blowback for running on the piece of shit 7.62 Bren 2, and maybe a couple of other 30cal gas guns. The 762 weights 12.6oz for an inconel can at just over 5 inches. |

You know kns makes a pretty great adjustable gas regulator for the Bren 2. |

The full size is low backpressure. I would assume the K would be very low backpressure. So maybe it will work well for your use case.
