Anyone out there have any creative ideas on how to deal with the mirage from suppressors? After a few rounds through my suppressed .308 Remington 700 I begin seeing that annoying mirage through my scope. I know there are mirage covers that are sold on the internet but I'm not very impressed with their performance.
At a military/LEO sniper concentration about 6 months ago I had the opportunity to fire an Army Ranger's SR-25 and he had his suppressor wrapped in about 1/4" of tape. The tape absorbed the heat to the point that it melted and formed a home made absorbtion system that appeared to work very well. I didn't have a suppressor at the time so I didn't ask many follow up questions. Has anyone seen anything like this done before or have any creative solutions to the problem?
