Muzzle device confusion

I am currently building a .223 R700 truck gun and thought of an idea... Would threading the barrel 5/8x24 for a .30 cal adapter to use my AAC can be worth it? I know it would be weird to see a .30 cal muzzle device on a .223 but it would allow me to use my .30 cal suppressor without issue.

Would the oversize dimensions affect the .223 at all? I'm not worried about recoil reduction at all, just don't want to inadvertently affect accuracy.
 
It might not reduce the sound pressure level as much as a .223 can, but it will work.
