Most states allow NFA! Sorry I haven't had time to catch up in here lately folks!

Still easily capable of 'minute-of-man' or better, though. Rifles that are designed and built with noise suppression in mind generally fare somewhat better. Bear in mind that 'suppressing' a .308 requires a combination of hardware and ballistic choices. Certainly not as simple as suppressing a 9mm.
I've shot a suppressed McMillan that was awsome. As was mentioned earlier - its a mix of the round and the weapon. Take a look at the .300 Whisper for a spiffy .30 cal set up for suppression. Its essentially a .223 necked up to .30.
