A lot of Kiwis use suppressors. They do deteriorate/wear out with usage. This leads to the questions of how many rounds before needing to replace the suppressor and how big does it have to be?

what are the ballistics out of a 22" or 24" barrel as most will be hunting non suppressor. Next, will the steel case's be reloadable and if so will they require Tungsten dies or similar and will the required powders be available in gun shops?

The current cartridge may use a cooler burning powder but friction also generates heat and the faster the bullet if traveling the more surface friction heat it will generate. The barrels certainly wont last as long unless chrome lined.

So in theory I could get my 358 RUM up top near the 4000fps area with 225 grain projectiles. So using a Woodleigh Hydro I could shoot through 2 Buff, not a scenario I would want.

Think I will be a Yeah-Nah 4
