.243 Barrel Length For Suppressor Use. 16” or 18”?

A 16” 243 is still less than a 20” magnum, IMO. I shoot my 14” 22 creed with about the same powder load as a 243 and it’s no biggie.

16” 243 is basically going to have 6 GT speeds or hot 6 ARC loads. You’ll be fine.

16 with a can is pretty slick. Just ask yourself how far out you want to shoot. But most 6's and 22's will easily get you out to 600.

SBRs are pretty awesome. I've got three but all ar-15 variants. A bolt gun would be fun once it's legally easier ti build one.
