Its initial debut was admittedly a bit of a tease in its prototype phase, but the numbers were nothing short of impressive. Here's what Dead Air has to say about it: Kurz cans have been all the rage, but size and weight really don't matter as much when we're talking about a precision rifle shot off of a barricade or bipod. To the range we went, and it exceeded our expectations. Then the folks at Dead Air told us that it metered around 130dB when using 6.5 Creedmoor. While we've seen the data for subsonic 300blk, almost everything sounds great with itвЂ“especially with a 16-inch barrel. Adding an E-brake to a standard Nomad makes it almost as long as a Dead Air Nomad-L, and if you add a Keymo it exceeds the length. You still retain all of the normal attributes of the Nomad such as the low-pressure design and larger diameter. And of course, this is naked without the optional Nomad E-brake or a quick-attach mounting system.

Though it doesn't sound like much, it adds just under 2-inches (1.89) to the length and 4.3-ounces to the weight. The Nomax was talked about so much that they decided to produce it in the form of the Dead Air Nomad-L.Д®ssentially the Dead Air Nomad-L is simply a normal Nomad with three more baffles in it. In fact, the top three quietest silencers with this rifle/ammo combination were all made by Dead Air. For example, it metered at a remarkable 120.5dB at the ear using subsonic 300blk and a 16-inch barrel. Labeled the вЂNomax', this prototype longer Dead Air Nomad was put through the paces. You can view all of the testing data here, but one silencer absolutely stood out from the crowd. In the early summer of 2019 a large group of silencer manufacturers got together to do a massive amount of decibel testing all at once with ammunition manufacturer Discreet Ballistics.
