Re: HOWA 308 Silencer
This might have an effect if you shoot hundreds of rounds at a time but on a normal shooting range you don't shoot barrels to such extremes anyway.
I haven't experienced any negatives on mine. The aluminum relays heat much quicker than the barrel steel, so it heats up quicker that limits your string of shots. With my 300win mag, the silencer causes a mirage way before the barrel is at an overheating temperature. And for hunting it's not going to make any difference.
I feel more comfortable knowing that the reflex silencer has two points of contact on the barrel, if I accidentally knock it in field or trip and fall it's probably less likely that I will damage the thread. The overall length of the gun is also a bit shorter than a non-reflex type.

Update from my side, Decided on the Warrior Silencer with front brake.
And must say very happy that I went with it.
