I received my Omega 300 last month. Will swap it out between 308 bolt gun, 6.5CM bolt gun, and 300 BLK AR It direct threads on all three. Any reasons why is should use adapters and not just direct thread it to each rifle when I want to use it? Thanks for the responses

Are you asking if you should buy “special adapters” instead of just direct thread?

Example: Dead Air sells a Keymo adapter to “quickly” swap out cans between rifles, but each rifle has to have a special muzzle brake for that to happen.

I have a .30 caliber can that I just direct thread to each rifle I use it on. It is suggested you check your zero each time you move it from gun to gun.

No. Direct thread is super repeatable, cheaper, and lighter. You also have less tolerance stacking. Only reason to use QD is if the mount itself influences the performance characteristics of the silencer. QD is a waste of money, length, and weight for most uses.
