I am looking into getting a suppressor for my remington r15 223. I use it for predator hunting so accuracy is very important but also I want the best sound reduction possible. I will only use the suppressor on the one rifle. I would like for some input on what might work best for me. Thanks
 
Thanks for the feedback! Do y'all recommend thread on or quick detach? I was told today that every time I take a thread on off and put it back on that I would have to sight in the rifle?

Whenever you hang anything off the end of a barrel there's the chance for POI shift. Whether you go with a direct thread or quick detach suppressor, on versus off, can have different POI.

Typically, the more weight you attach to the end of the barrel, the more it affects POI and smaller contour and or longer barrels seem to be affected more than shorter stiffer barrels.

Errrrch! I need to back up and reread what you asked.

Are you asking about simply unscrewing it and putting it back on, do you need to re-adjust your zero?

If that's what you're asking, no, you should not have to re-zero every time you take it off and put it back on, regardless, of whether it's a DT or QD.

This is what I am asking. Say I take it off to clean the rifle then put the can back on to go hunt. Will the gun still be on or will I have to sight it in again?
 
There should be no need to re-zero. I take mine on and off all the time and have never, nor needed to, re-zero my scope.
