load up some lead bullets to 1600fps . . now you have a well balanced rifle combo that is very pleasant to shoot, not loud with plenty of grunt . . my 2c

good luck

The muzzle device is a QD cyclone brake more like a flash hider so it's not as bad as a normal brake, I'll probably shoot it suppressed mainly. I probably wouldn't shorten the barrel any more than it is to move the suppressor back as 16" is probably as short as I would want 30-30. It feels quite nicely balanced as it is now, he suppressor only weighs 170grams. Will see how it shoots next week. I want this thing to have a reasonable amount of legs for a .3030 so I don't want to cut too much weight off it for recoil reasons. I may thrown a limbsaver on the back and I think that and the Oceania Suppressor will take a bit of the bite out.
