    Suppressing a browning BAR?

    I have just bought a browning short track in .243. I am interested in getting it suppressed. Dan Hardy are happy to do them and are confident that they can make them work. Gunworks and DPT won't, saying that they are too much trouble due to increased back pressure.

    Has anyone had any experience with this?

    Am I asking for trouble?

    When Phil responds he will talk about his .308 BAR which ran a Hardy can.

    Shoot it, root it & then BBQ it !!!
