You can switch between rifles as long as you DON'T exceed the suppressor's caliber size or pressure limits. Example, some 30 caliber suppressors are rated/specific for .308, using a 30 cal magnum could be bad. I have one that is rated for 338 Lapua, but it spends far more time on my 260. I now have one in the process for rimfire and another for pistols. Not everyone gets the suppressor bug once they shoot them ............ but I did.Probably a silly question, but why would you need several of them? Can't you exchange them between rifles?

And doing so without a $200 per stamp tax, paperwork, interstate travel restrictions, wait times, etc., would be much more appealing.
If they become non-NFA items, I think market forces will drive costs down considerably.
You're going to love that Ultra 7. I've been shooting a can from Griffin Armament and still really like it, but I got an Ultra 7 not long ago and it's a GREAT suppressor.I agree that there can be a little sticker shock but I still think it's some of the best gun money I've spent. I've wasted money on a lot dumber things. Besides the cost I don't see any drawbacks. It's way easier on your ears and it reduces recoil like a muzzle brake. You have the supersonic crack but it is still way quieter and depending on caliber hearing protection safe. As stated above you're going to get more noise out of a gas gun but it's still worth it in my opinion. I decided to get a few more so I can keep one dedicated for my AR and I thought it would be awesome to have one for my rimfires. I'm going to put a hurting on the prairie dogs with my suppressed .17 this summer.
There are a few suppressors out there now that really wouldn't be that bad to hunt with if you have a rifle setup for it. A rifle with a 20-22" barrel and an ultra 7 would be the ticket. You're still within a reasonable barrel length and it only weighs 11 oz so it won't be super front heavy. I agree that they can be cumbersome while hunting which is why I've only hunted with mine a few times. That might change this year though since my stamp just came though for my ultra 7
I don't think the pricing on suppressors is really going to drop companies have a lot of money in R&D and are using expensive metals that are hard to work with like stelite.
Don't worry on that score, its not at all like you see in the movies, the rifle still makes a bang!As a landowner I am not to exited about suppressors being legal. A suppressed rifle is likely to become the trespasser and poachers best friend.

You would still hear shots a long way off, unless it was a subsonic round and no one would use that for poaching.
You sure about that? A subsonic .300 blk or .308 still delivers a fair amount of energy within 100-200 yards
I suppose, I have shot subsonic .22 and it's crazy quite, but a regular .22LR not so much. Have you seen anyone shoot the rounds you spoke of with a suppressor?
I'm hopeful! A suppressed .22 would make squirrel hunting during bow season FUN!Hearing Protection Act was introduced yesterday.
