That was my thinking exactly. Kill two birds with one stone, so to speak. The added mass would only be the perforated bulkheads, since the coupler's needed anyway. The only concern I'd have is that only half the baffle is effectively anchored in the tube against the ejection pressurre. Make sure it's glued 'real good'.
