    Stupid question... take the can off and shoot subs through but leave your scope where it is? Then just see how the subs group? Change powder levels till your grouping well and below sound barrier?

    No you take the suppressor off and test to see the projectiles dont tumble. If they tumble they could hit the suppressor and damage it.
    Once they shoot straight and dont tumble, then put suppressor on and carry on
