Hi Folks,
I am about to order a Merkel K3 break action rifle for the stalking part of my hunting:
https://www.merkel-die-jagd.de/en/products/guns/single-shot-rifles/ssr-k3-extreme/
I will put on a light scope (Swarovski Z6i 1,7-10x42).

I also want a light but effective suppressor. For the game this rifle is for, the calibers .223 and .308 will be fine.
So I wonder: Which of these two calibers (.223, .308) will be easier to suppress with a 20” barrel and a light suppressor?
The task of the suppressor here is to protect my own and my dogs hearing.
For the .223 I am contemplating about this suppressor, A-Tec 119 Hertz:
