    DPT is good, overbarrel is quieter and not as much length forward of the muzzle (which is better because it catches less in the scrub). You need a suppressor of the correct or larger bore diameter. Going 30 cal you won't notice much increase in noise, but going higher you will.
    You also need one that is rated to the powder capacity of your rifle caliber. The options are rimfire, centerfire and centerfire magnum. For 6.5cm you just need the centerfire rated one.
    As others have said, don't store your rifle with suppressor in place.

    The other thing to know is that once you fit your suppressor, you will need to sight your rifle in again and then only use it with the suppressor on.
