[QUOTE="Veteran, post: 2439193, member: 118038"] My original question was do you get an increase or decrease in muzzle velocity and why? It really has nothing to do with the sound reduction purpose of the suppressor. I said upfront, I thought depending on design of the supressor, the barrel length, powder burn rate, and other factors, it could go either way, increase or decrease. Some sources say the effect on velocity is so negligible it is not statistically significant. I think it all depends........At least here from those reporting on this thread it looks like slight velocity gains were experienced by most, in the range of 10-30 fps. But, as I said, it could be depending on the set up you could experience no change or slight loss in velocity too. [/QUOTE]
