    thanks guys
    Depending on the brand, if it’s designed for a 308, it may not be ok on a 270 because it has more powder. If it’s designed for a 30-06 then it’ll be fine on a 270 or smaller. Suppressors are generally designed for a max powder load, dont go over that and the caliber its suited for and you will be fine.
