I’ve seen a few .22 cans that are also rated for 5.7...since I have a few 5.7 options (PS90 and CMMG), I’m looking for a can that can handle it. I would also like a can that is not direct thread, which it seems all .22 cans are...from what I can tell. Couple of questions that came up as I’ve been looking that I hope someone can set me straight on.
5.7 is obviously bigger in diameter than .22LR...how big is the i.d. of most .22 cans?
I assume bigger than 5.7 since some are rated for it?
To get something that is not direct thread, I’ll have to look at a centerfire can, I assume?
5.56 is obviously smaller than 5.7 as well so will a 5.56 can work (what are their standard i.d.)?
Does all of this just leave me shooting 5.7 through a .308 can the only choice if I want to go muzzle device/can?
Thanks!
