In another 20 years...

[The Hedgehog]

New owner of a Deadair 30.
Haven't decided if I want to thread my .308 or maybe sell a gun/ buy a gun.
Thinking about adding a 7.08 and selling my Sendero.
So my tech question, because I'm lazy and don't feel like phone research...if I bought a 7.08 and threaded it, am I forced to always using the can, or is there an adapter to screw on the threads to shoot the rifle without can? Hypothetically, use the can at range, but hunt without can.
Does this present accuracy issues jumping back and forth? I recall observations of nominal velocity change.
Could this scenario only truly be understood by shooting and seeing?
Guess i am trolling for feedback to help process options.
Thanks.

Come over sometime with a 6 pack of green cans.

How about a shopping cart full of Pacifico?

Just don’t spend too much on that piss water. You’ll want to keep your steadiness while shooting in my garage.

I just don’t see how it helps me for hunting deer and elk.
If I was trying to shoot multiple coyotes or wild pigs at a time would maybe make sense.

Correct, spotting your impacts thru your scope and the audible sound of hit are highly overrated.

To answer the OP
20 yrs from now, if not before I will need a new barrel. I will make the call then on barrel length.
Until then I will not rest to every rifle barrel in my safe is 20" or shorter.

I also prefer the sonic boom, and seeing a herd of animals turn inside out to scatter after the sound of a shot, as opposed to standing around and calming feeding.

I was all frantic to stock up.
