One of the things I'm going to be talking to bison barrels about at shot. To me, 300 blk makes so much more sense for suppressed. You have to keep a round subsonic to make the suppressor really worthwhile so you have a maximum velocity. Energy is weight x velocity, so a 7.62 bullet should have more weight and therefore more energy than a 6.8 traveling the same speed. Since they are different platforms for 308 and 6.8, I'd say do an ar 15 with two different upper. You can do just one 308 but 6.8 sure is sexy. My dad was drooling over mine and he flat out doesn't get overly excited about new rounds
