    UPGRADE SUPPRESSER

    Just slightly upgraded my oldish Gunworks Sparton suppresser from 4" forward of barrel to 5"forward.Hopefully quieten the 308 down a little.41mm dia x 9" long to 41mm dia x 13.5"long.
    Velocity increased from 2836f/s to 2900f/s using the same croney.
    POI changed in elevation rising about 2" at a hundy.
    So did a rough hundy group yesterday on a warm barrel.
    Went out this evening and fire 5 shots out of nice cold barrel.Walked to target,hmm as I got closer I thort bugger only 2 shots hit.Then I got closer,surprize.Only 2 holes with 5 shots.Slight southerly breeze from right to left.
    The thermal clip on,on a $350 Nikko stirling scope shooting so good i wont change anything.
    Suppresser has quieten the 308 down a little.Guess deer will tell me the difference between old and new.
