The huxwrks cans are pretty good.
They are effective at keeping blowback down in my limited experience with one.

A tuned 18” AR with a good suppressor is probably ok for sustained use in ideal conditions. I am more cautious, like you. Even terrain can make a seemingly quiet .22lr loud. And I’d probably never consider a 10.3” to 14.5” AR as safe. I do however consider my bolt .223 and bolt 6.5 guns as comfortable to shoot without ear pro.
It's kind of like hammering a nail, mowing the lawn, etc. Do we wear ear protection for that? No... but in reality, it's probably the correct thing to do. If I have a set up that hurt my ears/ringing... then the the whole set up is worthless.
Shooting a suppressed AR with ear pro on is nonsense. I fukking HATE running cans on gas guns with a passion as it is. So if I need ears anyway, then it's fully RETARDED.

If it means you can shoot on a property and not get noise complaints / upset a neighbor, it's still worth it IMO.
I've ordered a K can for my T7 because where I usually shoot rifles now there is an overhang and even with a sound-thrower on it and double ear pro I still got some ringing. It's possible I had a plug come out a little, too.
But that convinced me to can it.
As well as not annoying neighbors / buddy's neighbors, etc.

I prefer an overboard can every time. If I'm shooting 556 I'm fine shooting a 30 cal can and getting fine sound reduction and lower back pressure. My 6.5 guns always get a 30 cal cans. I find its funny people go out and buy a 6.5 can to improve.....nada IMHO.

I heard or read that Kevin from the old AAC was very much about matching Caliber to Can. I'm now sure why because the over-bored cans work great and leave room to avoid baffle damage/strikes.
