Introduction
Today I once again find myself going down the baffled rabbit hole of suppressors, our subject for today is the Banish Backcountry suppressor by Silencer Central. This rugged and lightweight suppressor is built for backcountry hunters who demand performance with as little weight as possible. My purpose is to put this suppressor to the test so inquiring minds like yours can decide if it fits into your list of needs.
The Banish Backcountry Suppressor
When the Banish Backcountry showed up, I was surprised by few things. As I lifted it from the foam-lined box it became very clear what the engineers had in mind with the Backcountry can. If I had to describe the Backcountry with one word I suppose it would be simplicity.
The Banish Backcountry uses a traditional baffle design welded together made from titanium. The slight departure from tradition is that the Backcountry uses the Banish line’s industry standard mounting hub. This allows the user to swap out the mounting situation to whatever best suits their needs. The 1.375 x 24 threads are nearly universal even among other manufacturers, allowing incredible variety in how you attach this suppressor to the host firearm.

The Banish backcountry came to me with a handsome black finish, I am a big fan of the OD Green though. I was extremely impressed at its lightweight, coming in under eight ounces is outstanding. Additionally the under six-inches wouldn’t add much to my hunting rifles.
The lightweight of this suppressor is in part the titanium construction, as well as the simple design. I was curious how well it would do at suppressing the noise with its smaller configuration, it wouldn’t take long to find out.
I would also shoot the Backcountry suppressor on my Bergara Crest Carbon 308 rifle, another lightweight hunting rifle that is optimal for the Banish Backcountry suppressor. And also for some serious testing I would mount the Backcountry to my Desert Tech SRS M2, a rifle I shoot very frequently, which would allow me to evaluate the Banish characteristics based on known performance.
My PVA Modus rifle worked great using the Backcountry suppressor
