    I'm about 2" head space. I've checked all measurements a few times. Only way you could get velocity gain imo is if the suppressor isn't working properly. The point of a suppressor is the same as a car muffler. To slow and remove pressure from hot high pressure air meeting cold. You need pressure to get velocity and it should be lowered as soon as it gets into the suppressor, so no gain. I'm waiting to hear back from hardys to see what they say. The barrel crown is clean so are the threads so doesn't look like escaping gases. But they should come out around the barrel not back down it I would have thought?
