[QUOTE="08H3, post: 4369217, member: 30568"] I can weigh in a little on the can vs no can hunting and otherwise. A few years back I decided to do a form 1 can out of titanium, at the time it was cheaper and a lot faster to do a homebrew than buy a off the shelf. Recently my BIL bought a Griffin Armament 556 can. We have shot them side by side on similar setup AR's and notice little sound difference between the two but a slightly deeper tone to mine being its 30 cal and not 22. He also has a 30 cal can too, cant comment one way or the other as we have different taste in 30 cal rifles and haven't shot them on similar rifles. We have not noticed a considerable difference in POI shift in hot/cold weather. We both have rifles we only shoot suppressed and both have a couple we don't shoot suppressed. As for hunting with them, if able I will always hunt with a suppressor over no suppressor. Shooting a 16.5" 308 out of a box blind or pop up is MUCH more tolerable when it is suppressed I don't care who says what. If you don't like suppressors fine, but that doesn't give you any right to tell someone they are wrong for liking them and using them.... Now I do have rifles I don't shoot suppressed and equally enjoy, hell my model 70 in 243 is one of my favorite guns to shoot and no way I would thread it either, same for my dads marlin 30-30... But my 12.5" AR pistol, yeah I am running my can on that loud lil guy especially out of a blind. Yes I know, you dont get the velocity out of a 12.5 that you do a ..... I don't care, within 200 I promise its fine, and I have meat in the freezer to prove it. At the end of the day its personal preference and for me, it is obvious. I like to that with a 30 al I can suppress most of my rifles pretty easily that I would want to. Its also benefitted me deer hunting it the past to be able to take a buck and if the Doe near him doesn't see him fall I can most of the time get a good shot on her too... FWIW, had a friend that tried 350 in a AR and it didn't go well for him.... had a bunch of feeding issues [/QUOTE]
