Looking to buy my first suppressor for my AR in 6.5 Grendel with 18" barrel. Will be used night hunting coyotes. My preference is for something short and light. As this is my first time buying a suppressor looking for some suggestions on what to try.
 
There's going to be quite a few folks chiming in I'm sure momentarily.

First things, first, if you hadn't already, go to Pew Science, and look through his free articles. Then afterwards, fine tune your choices. I will tell you, that I really have enjoyed using my Otter Creek Polonium 30 on my 6.8SPC. It's not "light", but it's definitely toned down the report. I went with it over the Diligent Defense Enticer due to availability. But I love my friends Enticer on his 6.5grendel.

I have the 6.5 Thunderbeast Ultra 9. The make an Ultra 7 also. My Ultra 9 is very light at 10 ounces.
 
I have a BCA side charger 16" upper in 6.5G. Run an Omega 300 on it (along with several other rifles). Direct thread mount with a 30 caliber end cap. 6" long, 14 ounces. With a titanium direct thread mount and titanium end cap, a couple ounces can be shaved. Does a decent job of sound suppression, about equal to an AR in .223. Despite it being a low end upper, really enjoy shooting it. The upper does not have an adustable gas block, but no blowback to the face. It does run a little dirty however.

Man your not kidding on availability:( on that Enticer. I tried to order one this weekend and was told it would be anywhere from 4 to 6 months before I could even get one let alone start the paper work.
 
I just got a dead air sandman s, and on my 18 inch grendel it is very quiet. On par with my 17hmr unsuppressed. It is not heavy enough to notice and it is only 7 inches or so

I was using my SAS Barricade on my 6 Creedmoor but recently switched over to using my new DA Nomad LTi XC on it. I don't have any complaints with the Barricade it's a good can and I really like the shorter length but my new Nomad though longer is actually lighter and holy cow Batman is that thing quiet on my 6 CM. I sorta thought maybe I wouldn't mind having the shorter Ti XC but now I REALLY want one of those and I don't think the shorter Ti XC is much louder then its big brother the LTi XC.
