[QUOTE="shootski, post: 2632366, member: 106014"] Good recommendations already but I can try to help you with one variable. I shoot suppressed airguns from .177 to .58 caliber with and without Suppressors as well as firearms. I shoot ten (10) shot minimum groups. How many rounds to you shoot? I'm going to make the assumption you are at 100 meters/yard and shoot three (3) shot groups. Is your Suppressor HOT or ambient for each shot? What about your barrel? The reason I ask these questions is that it SEEMS from my experience that firearm Suppressors can get very hot and keep your barrel much hotter than without. Airgun Suppressors do not get hot or even warm. POI SHIFT is common, virtually assured, on airguns with the Suppressor mounted. Ten (10) shot group dispersion (vertical or horizontal) increase is not seen unless the projectile clips the Suppressor. Unless you are shooting COLD Bore and COLD Suppressor I believe you will be chasing your tail trying to determine what is at the heart of your group [hopefully at least Ten (10) shot] dispersion increase.
