Suppressing a rifle

I have a couple rifles I want to suppress for night time hog hunting. The rifles I have aren't fitted to allow a suppressor. Anyone recommends anybody specific to thread a barrel for a suppressor and a rough cost on how much that job is?
Also, open to other calibers to suppress. Just want something next to silent.
Thanks,
I've been convinced to spend the money and get a 300 blackout.

Use a raw potato like they did on The Wire.

Something to think about, if you haven't already, is whether or not there is enough material at the muzzle to support the threads and shoulder you need. If the rifles have bull barrels you're probably OK, if the barrels are "sporter" tapered there may be an issue.

just curious, do you already own suppressor(s) ?
Barrel threading will range from $75 to $125 depending on the GS or shop.

To me, it usually makes more sense to put that money towards a new, factory threaded, rifle.

Hebert’s will do it, I think for around $125. Been wanting to do one of my .17s to knock the crack down a little. Not sure of their quality since I haven’t done so yet, but could prob find some reviews.

Buhler Ballistics in Baton Rouge is where you want to go for barrel threading.

If going with 300BLK I recommend looking at the Ruger Ranch with threaded barrel. I have one and love that thing.
