    Suppressor thread - Too small?

    I think I have a 1/2"x20UNF thread on my current Gunworks suppressor. Its looks small. Would it be okay on a 308 bore?

    I don't care about accuracy too much, or having to cut it shorter; I just don't want my face to be shredded.

    I doubt the suppressor will either. Its just a standard one with the stainless muzzle break.
