7.62 Silencer questions (running it on a 5.56 possible benefits)

My SDN-6 seems quieter than my M4-2000 on a 5.56 10.5" SBR. It's also bigger/heavier.

I guess my position is that if you're going to have only one can, you'd at least like it to be quiet on something. The .30 can allows one to invest in a 300 BLK and have a truly quiet system. A dedicated 5.56 can won't get you that. So go ahead an get a .30 can and just realize that you'll, for whatever reason, get a dedicated 5.56 can later. It just happens.

Hahaha this is so true. My first can was a 762SD, and I've run it on 308,6.8,223 and 300 BO. But I wanted a smaller dedicated can for my 223 rigs, and then picked up a M4 2000...

I have a Specwar 7.62 CAN that I run on my .300BLK, .308 gas gun, and a 5.56 AR. Personally, even though the 7.62 CAN on a 5.56 may technically be a few decibles louder, to me it just sounds different, and not necessarily louder. I actually prefer the sound of a 7.62 CAN on a 5.56, over a 5.56 dedicated CAN. But probably just personal preference.
