    Zippy I'm pretty sure that some supressers can inter change ie 30 cals , keep the can so you will only loose the cost of the thread . If you not happy then get a 308 ? .
    Some one please confirm or put this straight pls

    That's the one Munsey. The calibre only dictates the size of the hole through the suppressor, so: .30 cal is .30 cal.

    Zippy,
    It will still make a big improvement.
    -You might like to consider a suppressor with a larger internal volume. Such as 'Gunworks Maximus'.

    Zippy - every rifle I own is suppressed. Your hearing is precious, suppressed rifle often allow multiple shot's before game is spooked, if you hunt with a dog it doesn't go deaf as well, oh & did I mention that they are quiet Apart from giving your barrel a chop to make sure it doesn't become cumbersome there are no negatives. Gunworks & HRE are the most popular however there are now other NZ made brands fast catching up in popularity. It will be the best $500ish dollars that yourve ever spent - Hearing aids are thousands of dollars!
