Is a dedicated 556 can worth it?

I run a specwar 762 on a mosin 91/30 so when I go long , I go real long.
That's musket length!
Also I'll probably never buy a 556 under 16". That's just stupid, stupider than a 16" 308.

Boom. Flame on chomos
Not nearly as stupid as suppressing a Mosin. ;) I don't get you man!
 
So how does a .556 can work on a .22 lr ? Can you still use the iron sights? If yes, I would think it worthwhile. Considering a can myself for .22

A dedicated. 22lr can is the way to go for 22lr. You need a user serviceable can for 22 and there are only a few 556s that are. The weight and size trade off are not worth the trade off
 
To answer the OP. Yes, 5.56 cans are totally worth it. I own a 7.62 can and a 5.56 can and i a considering buying a second 5.56 can.
 
Is that quiet enough to shoot comfortably without hearing protection?
I do not wear hearing protection while shooting it and don't notice any discomfort or ringing. That said, I rarely shoot it more than 100 rounds or so on an outing. If I am at a range more than likely I am shooting a bolt gun. I see the usefulness of semiautomatic rifles, and I own several, but I don't get much out of blazing away all day with one.
