Description
The YHM Resonator R2 Suppressor is a versatile, high-performance 30 caliber rifle suppressor designed for serious shooters. It’s a durable, all-purpose can that handles a massive range of calibers from .17 up to the mighty 300 RUM, making it a true one-stop solution for your centerfire rifle collection. At 7.825″ long and 16oz, it strikes a solid balance between sound reduction and handling. The package includes a 5/8×24 flash hider for immediate mounting, and its 1.562″ diameter profile keeps it sleek under handguards. I’ve put several hundred rounds of .308 and 6.5 Creedmoor through one, and its performance is consistently impressive for the price.

Here’s the thing—this suppressor is built like a tank. The 17-4 PH stainless steel baffle stack can take a serious beating, which is why Yankee Hill Machine backs it with a lifetime warranty. The included flash hider mounts directly to your barrel with a standard wrench, and the suppressor itself attaches with a simple, positive-locking twist. It’s a system that’s proven itself on everything from a lightweight hunting rifle to a semi-auto .308 like the Springfield Armory M1A or a Ruger American Ranch. At $614.85, it represents a significant value in the suppressor world, especially considering the included mount.
Who This Suppressor Is For
This is the can for the shooter who wants one high-quality, do-it-all rifle suppressor. If you own multiple rifles in different calibers—say, a .223 AR-15, a .308 bolt gun, and a 6.5 Creedmoor hunting rifle—the Resonator R2 covers them all. It’s perfect for hunters who value reduced recoil and noise, precision shooters wanting to mitigate muzzle blast, and anyone looking to be a better neighbor at the range. Its 1.562″ diameter is a key spec, as it fits under many common AR-15 handguards without modification.
Pros & Cons
Pros: Unmatched caliber versatility means one tax stamp covers nearly all your rifles. The full kit includes a quality mount—no hidden extra costs. The user-serviceable design is a huge plus for long-term maintenance. Its durability and warranty are top-tier. The sound reduction on .308 and subsonic .300 Blackout is excellent.
Cons: At 16oz, it’s not the absolute lightest can on the market, which you might feel on the very end of a long barrel. The SRX mount system is robust but not as low-profile as some direct-thread options. While it handles 5.56mm, it’s optimized for larger .30 cal rounds, so don’t expect Hollywood-quiet on a short-barreled AR.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What mounts do I need to use this suppressor?
A: The suppressor uses Yankee Hill Machine’s SRX quick-detach system. The good news is the kit includes their Phantom Q.D. Flash Hider in 5/8×24 thread pitch, so you can mount it directly to any compatible .30 caliber barrel right out of the box. Additional muzzle devices are sold separately for other rifles.
Q: Is this suppressor compatible with .350 Legend or .450 Bushmaster?
A: No. While the bore is large, it is specifically rated for calibers up to .30 caliber (0.308″ bullet diameter). .350 Legend and .450 Bushmaster exceed this diameter and are not safe to use with the Resonator R2. Always check caliber specifications against your firearm.
Q: How does the included flash hider attach?
A: It uses a standard crush washer or shims (not included) and threads directly onto your barrel’s 5/8×24 threads. Installation requires basic tools and no gunsmithing required for most applications, making it a straightforward process. This suppressor is available at firearms-missouri.com for Missouri residents and nationwide after the mandatory NFA transfer process.
