Thread: Effect of suppressor on performance of a given load...

Yeah Im a bit of a jynx when it comes to supressors ,ask Tuiman2 . Heres a thought though, the harmonics theory has puzzeled a me a little. If a suppressor changes the harmincs of the barrel why do most tuned loads continue to be well tuned loads? and why generally do they shoot lower when fitted? that seems a little odd if its harmonics. I can see it having a damping effect maybe so it dosnt change it as such just reduces but Iwonder if its more of a weight issue as well making it more stable like a heavy barrel.
