    Here's my take. I've got a mate who uses a suppressor (dpt) on a 7 Rem mag and it's nice too shoot. I use a brake on 7saum and it's noisy but nice to carry and nicely balanced (you must wear hearing protection or guaranteed instant hearing damage will occur). When walking around I take the brake off and use it for closer shots (still fu$king noisy though). Brake goes on for a longer shot.

    All my other centrefires are suppressed and I'm a big fan of them (I use a dog).

    If your intent is alpine hunting only I'd go brake but if you are going to bush hunt as well I'd cut the barrel to say 20 inches and suppress it. Still have plenty of poke to 5 or 600 yards.

    Good luck.
