are you going to chop it stupid short and there fore spoil advantage of 243...speed speed speed and accuracy.
or are you going to only take enough off end to thread it and use it full length and put up with longer front heavyness.....
all my rifles bar the extra long .45/70 are suppressed...Ive got 2 LOUD ones I have sort of inherited so cant yet suppress them...but when I can ,I will.
stereo electric earmuffs could well be better option..they dont help your mates or the dog.

I've got a 99 in 308. Dont use it a lot. Take my Interarms to the range shoots instead, with the muzzle brake. Usually get the end three shootign benches to myself...
