[QUOTE="DTF370, post: 2776235, member: 115086"] I think two of the top choices would be 300 WSM or 338 federal. Of course suppressor diameter will matter. Most magnum cases will be somewhat of a waste in short barrels. I’d stick with 308-based cases or a short mag. Of course it doesn’t mean you can’t pull a crazy Ivan and run a 338LM or something. You’re just going to lose a lot in a magnum case as it needs barrel length to burn enough magnum powder to get into good velocities. [/QUOTE]
