Adding a suppressor accuracy affect?

[FireFlyFishing]

I'm with others here. I shoot suppressed almost exclusively now. I do my load development with my suppressors. In fact, I don't know how some of my rifles shoot without a suppressor…I mean…why be uncivilized while shooting? As others have said here, it simply changes the POI.

In my experience I've found most suppressors change POI however I do have one rifle with a certain can POI doesn't change.

I have also found different suppressors on the same rifle with the same load will change accuracy. I just tested this today on a 7 PRC. A Silenencerco Omega shot amazing, spin on a Dilligent Defense S-Ti and it shot terrible.

I disagree with most previous comments. Adding a suppressor does change accuracy for a given load. It may be better or it may be worse. Adding that weight to the end of the barrel definitely affects barrel harmonics.

Is your statement from your opinion or experience or hear say? My own personal experience with my Otter Creek Hydrogens shooting through my 6 dasher, 22 GT, 6GT have had minimal POI shift. I would feel comfortable shooting them out to 500 yard without a doubt with or without the suppressor. My FPS did not change, my ES and SD tightened up a little but they was already good. And still shoot in the .2s with or without the suppressor. Todd
