6.5 Creedmoor W/suppressor

So I'm signed up for the Quite Riot this year & I live Cali so they will borrow me the same can for the weekend. So my question is, have you found a general rule for your loads like -.3gr for use with my can. Should I just buy some Prime? Any go to loads for 140 hybrids & H4350 with a suppressor? I'm running an AI so I was thinking about bringing a few of my 6.5CM barrels just in case my match barrel shoots like $hit with chosen load. Thanks for any info

Run the rifles pet load. You might have a POI shift but it should shoot just as good. I’ve had guns shoot better with a can. Only time I’ve seen or heard of guns not shooting as good it has been either bad suppressor or barrel threading issue.

I might add you’ll probably get a 10-20 FPS boost with a can. You might get no help from can, but like I said before typically if you have negative affects you can typically blame the can (not a Precision oriented can) or bad threads (typically very negative affects lol)

Thanks for the reply. I was worried about the extra pressure. If it's only 10-20fps I'll just roll with my match load.

You shouldn’t see any extra pressure signs. My guess for the small velocity boost is the suppressor is still somewhat acting like a barrel and keeping the gasses behind the bullet for a slightly longer period of time.

I use the exact same load. It actually shoots a little tighter groups suppressed.
