Suppressor on 22in barrel T3x

[Dirtywater]

T3x lite with 22.4in barrel chambered in 7prc.
It seems most guys are cutting down to 18in to mount a can, is the main reason weight savings?

Most people want a more compact overall rifle. Long barrels with mufflers get pretty unwieldly.

Long barrels 22-24" with a can are a pain to pack around.
Not horrible on the open prairie but definitely not great.

16" barrel with a can is the tatas!

I've got a 16" 22 creed, 18" 223 ai and the 6 UM is 22 but the new barrels are 20's.

Rifle balance and also to prevent getting constantly snagged on branches. Most my hunting is in mountains and it can be a pain when you have 24 inch barrel and add a can then your at 30 inches or so. The reduced weight is nice as well. Although its not usually much. Agreed its just unwieldy
