Get a .22 can and a 7.62 can. That way you can shoot .223 and 7.62 through the 7.62 suppressor and .22LR, .22 magnum and .17 HMR through the rimfire can.

Hopefully it's clearer now.
I don't mean to be argumentative, but I shoot 22 through my Gemtech Halo all the time. Not an exaggeration to say a thousand rounds of 22 for every hundred 223 . And while you are correct 22 is filthy stuff tthe first 10 rounds of 223 cleans it right out. That said I agree if you are just starting your stamp collection. The cans you want are 22 Lr. 7.62 (you can anything from 22. LR through 7.62x54R in most and some are rated through 300 win mag ) and for centerfire pistol a 45acp can.
