[QUOTE="squeeeeze, post: 2278158, member: 34065"] I have been running suppressors for a few years myself and I see an average of approx. 1” low (repeatable) at 100 yards by adding a suppressor and approx. 15-35 FPS gain added with a suppressor depending on rifle/cartridge. I haven’t needed to change a load yet and all shoot just as accurate, if not more so suppressed. I do have to rezero and use a different MV in my drop Charts. I have titanium cans that are all pretty light weight. The more extreme variables will have more extreme variations… I.E. suppressor weight, length, barrel length, and contour. Once my Thunderbeast 338 Ultra arrives I can guarantee that I’ll have more of an impact shift from that big boy V.S. My 7”x1.5” Titanium can or my TBAC Dominus on my 25” 2B fluted barrel. To the O.P., it appears you are shooting a Reflex suppressor and I’m sure you’d have different results with velocity V.S. a 9” .308 cal. or smaller caliber can using the full volume like a TBAC Ultra 9 that will suppress more and build more internal pressure. But then again I’m not familiar with that brand of can you’re shooting but a Reflex nonetheless. [/QUOTE]
