[QUOTE="Ksduckhntr, post: 1457484, member: 101730"] i received my suppressors in the last couple weeks and got to shoot with them this week. They are extremely cool but boy do they add some length. On my 223 it doesn’t matter since it’s kind of a bench/fun rifle with now worries of weight length etc.. My 6.5 swede has a 22” barrel and boy does it feel long. At the range no biggie but I was hoping to hike it around hunting. So it got me thinking about, if I was to design a barrel for hunting suppressed what would that look like. Something 18-20” long, bartlein #4 contour or maybe #3. What cartridge would you pick if it’s for mule deer and one day maybe a aoudad type animal at max range of 300-350. Is it the tried and true 308 win, or just cut my swede down? I am open to opinions and discussions. For sake of discussion factory ammo primarily even if it’s 30-40 a box. It will be a hunting rig. I have a 300 wsm for anything bigger or longer [/QUOTE]
