FnF..Not trying to bust your bubble. You can't really suppress a 308. It is hypersonic and you will always have a crack of the bullet. I have had a suppressed firearm or two in the past and you can really make subsonic rounds pretty quiet but the bigger rounds that are truly useful are next to impossible to make quiet. A neat round that can be suppresses is the 300 Whisper./ ..221 Fireball case with a 200 gr 30 cal bullet ..About 1100 ft Per Sec..At a 100 yds it's still doing around a 1000 FPS
