This may be a silly question, but I'm curious -

Can a suppressor made for a .223 AR also be used on a .22lr single-shot bolt rifle? Since the bullet diameters are nearly the same I'd think so, but since the cartridges are vastly different I may be totally wrong.

Would it work OK or not?

Not like I can afford one, but maybe someday. I'd just like to know. Thanks!
