I'm not an expert by any means or stretch of the imagination but I did a little reading about ballistics when I was going to build a bolt gun. 5.56 SBRs aren't really that effective, or good for suppressors.

You're slowing down a bullet that was designed to go fast. What's the point? Get something heavier...

I‘m not an expert either, despite having a good bit of experience with these I’m always learning.
5.56 when going short barrel gets close to 22mag velocity and at that point it’s wasted noise and money especially in a bolt gun. Subsonic? Well there’s 22lr Aguila SSS 60gr so why bother?
