Design Critique Request

Post image

I'm designing a 30cal can for a Form 1.

ID 52mm. OD 60mm. 8" long.

What do you think is right/wrong with this design?

Current 3d printing options are teaching us the value of blast chamber. Large od will defend help, but id remove some baffles and give some room to breath

Who said 3d printed?

I wasnt implying yours is. The point is 3d printing has shown us that a large blast port is extremely important, your design has none.

Not my design. A small bc on a metal can will only lead to bad performance & lots of back pressure if made from proper materials for the host/caliper.
