[QUOTE="FrogFire7, post: 2009946, member: 101482"] I don't personally own a suppressor, but my brother in law does. Seems to help with recoil in my experience shooting it. As someone else mentioned, the more I shoot and coach others, the more I believe that most shooters are actually flinching more from the muzzle blast anticipation than the recoil. I've noticed this a lot in my own shooting through the years. A buddy and I shoot a groundhog tournament every year. Typically, I plug up for every shot. Often kill woodchuck out to 500 yards... but by the end of the day we are feeling the pressure and often rush things. I've missed woodchuck at 50 yards (admittedly freehand shots, but I've killed them to almost 200 freehand with plugs in) when shooting without earplugs, and that is just shooting a long barreled 223. When reviewing my shot, I know without a doubt I jerked the trigger due to anticipating the muzzle blast. A can is in my near future. [/QUOTE]
