[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1515097, member: 12995"] Subsonic 6.5mm ammo might be something that will have to push you into the realm of rolling your own. Anything for a good legit excuse right? Just like buying another gun. :D As far as suppressors go, what are you main goals? Do you need a QD style mount? Because direct-thread cans are typically a lot cheaper. Do you need it to be super compact, or can it be 6-8" in length? Remember, the more volume in a can, the quieter it will be. This is why longer suppressors (7"-11") are noticeably quieter than shorter suppressors (under 6"). Are you wanting it to be a multi-caliber can? Replaceable end caps? Do you want it to be user serviceable? With a centerfire this isn't as important as with rimfire suppressors, because rimfire ammo is nasty and really dirties up a suppressor. And if you shoot uncoated lead rimfire ammo, you will get lead buildup all in the can, and it will need to be cleaned every 500-1,000 rounds or so. [/QUOTE]
