    I have heard of this phenomenon. I’ve heard that a barrel with a suppressor will get higher velocity than the same barrel without a suppressor. Not only has it been told to me, but I remember reading it somewhere, just don’t remember where.

    Well I learned this by purchasing a can and learning that what was subsonic isn’t after I put the can on. With regular super sonic loads my POI was about 1” higher than normal. So after some chrono testing it added about 100fps

    I’m not saying it isn’t true but it doesn’t make sense. A silencer is sucking the gas out from behind the bullet along with any unburned powder. I guess I’ll have to borrow my buddy’s crono and check for myself.
