Velocity increase with suppressors

[DisplacedHusky]

To those that have chronographed their rifles with and without suppressors, what is the increase in velocity that you are seeing? Please post your cartridge, barrel length, suppressor and velocity difference.

I've tested a lot of different combinations, and all I generally see is 10-20fps under normal circumstances. It's largely dependent on suppressor, cartridge, and barrel length, but other variables like powder burn rate, enviromentals, etc. can exacerbate it.

Overall, the velocity change should be pretty negligible all else being equal. POI shift will be much more significant in my experience.

Just browsing nailed it.
