Another point in favour of suppressors - I take it off, put it in my pack and strap my rifle to the side of my pack for the walk in to my hunting area. Because it is shorter I'm less liable to get caught up on supplejack on the way in. Get in, make camp, put suppressor on, go hunting, no worries.
Also on the .308 it reduces felt recoil by mebbe 40% IMO
