World of difference huh. Drop the powder charge from 10.0 to 9.4. Went from 1075-1100 to 980-1010. I think I like it!

Yeah, those are subsonic.

I actually went down to 8.5 grains of IMR 4227 when shooting 230+ grain cast bullets or 200+ grain jacketed bullets.

I also have a large port and use an adjustable gas block to tune it for a specific velocity. I load to the velocity I want then turn the gas down to reduce blowback and crud.

I had to adjust my block again after dropping to 9.4gr

I just bought 200 more Hornady 208gr match bullets coming home from Murfreesboro, and I've got brass in the tumbler. Oh goodie!

A suggestion, buy one of the 1/2-28 to 5/8-24 adapters. I don't remember ordering one but I had one show up today and all I can say is I was about to submit for a 22 caliber can but the adapter makes my 30 caliber can useable on all my 22 and 223 guns. And it is quieter than my 22 K baffle can I already have. It is, without a doubt, the best $20 I have spent on the gun hobby in a very long time. It makes your suppressor useable on so many more guns. And although mine is big it is not heavy because it is made out of titanium, aluminum and a small amount of stainless.

 

This is the one I bought and it is perfect.

I have a dedicated 22 AR with a 3.5" barrel. Using the adapter the silencer fits perfectly inside the free float tube. And firing bulk pack it sounds like a heavy duty stapler like you use at the range. Out of a single shot Marlin rifle I can hear the firing pin hitting when shooting Aguila SSS rounds.

That is my plan exactly DS. As a matter of fact, look what I have done to my 300BLK rifle to achieve 16" barrel requirements. Its welded to the barrel. That sure is a fancy flash hider huh? And now my Form 1 can is an attachment I can use on other rifles using an adapter.

Looks great. I had done something similar with a 22lr AR I had.
