Most practical videos on KZread along with Hop

The only downside to hop in my opinion is that he makes everything sound like he’s whining. Not all the time but a fair majority of his videos just feel whiny.

Yeah I love Hop but he has an air of witty sarcasm on most of his videos. I think Hop is funny as hell most of the time but I like MMM slightly better because he is has a cheerful delivery. Plus he is all about the information and sharing knowledge on long range shooting.

Hop is an elitist nerd who has a very smug attitude. I met him at shot, the perpetual negativity in his videos is not an act, that's really how he is. After 5 minutes, it's like, okay, I'm done listening to this dude talk down on everything.

Please don’t compare a fine KZread channel such as this to Hop. That’s insulting

If you have a notable amount of poi shift you can always set your unsuppressed zero as your zero stop and have the actual zero (where the turret actually says zero) as your suppressed zero. That way if you want to go back and forth you either just turn to your zero stop or you turn it to 0.

I dont understand how your channel is not #1 with the 2A community if not KZread. So much info that we can ALL use to improve our shooting. You're doing a great job. Keep up the good work. May God bless you and yours and God bless America 🇺🇸.

I really enjoy, that you don’t just produce content for the sake of content, but actually have a topic and script to go with it. No bla bla to fill the video. No drama👍🏻

You have a gift of reading my mind and covering the questions I have while driving to work. All of these things matter. I wonder how many AR owners know where they impact? Your work has convinced me to zero all “battle” rifles the same. Appreciate you Sir!

Unsuppressed the impact went from left at 50 to the right at 200 and it appeared to be a slightly larger group. Thank you for being so thorough and showing what you do. 👍🏻

This series is much appreciated. I’ve done multiple calculations on a ballistic calculator, but that’s all theory. You have saved me the work of confirming the academics. Some of us also barely have access to a 200 yard range, let alone a 300.

Would you say that the slight elevation drop when shooting unsuppressed was due to a slight reduction in muzzle velocity (assuming that the suppressor gives the round a bit more powder burn to increase MV)? It would be great to chrono your shots while zeroing suppressed vs unsuppressed to see if there is any noticeable MV change. Thanks again for the great content!

You run into a few different variables when shooting suppressed, especially if you're going off of an unsuppressed zero. First, and probably least noticeable inside of 300 is barrel harmonics. Second, and this is also fairly negligible inside of 300, especially with smaller cans, is the added weight at the muzzle pulling downward on the barrel. You probably won't even notice this effect until you get beyond 300. Possibly further. Unless you're running a heavier auto rated can made out of steel, you may not notice an effect from this at all. Finally, you do get some added muzzle velocity by virtue of having more time for powder burn, but its also facing less air resistance through the can after the first shot burns up the air in the can. Harmonics are actually the bulk of your POI shift. Some older cans, and mostly heavier cans, are horrible for this. Taper mount cans will give you the best results, though.

You just keep cranking out this great and very relatable content. Looking forward to the rest of this series. Thanks!

I was thinking this would be a comparison of the impact of shooting with and without a suppressor on the zero without re-zeroing in between. Maybe you’ve already done that? I think that would be interesting to see, even though we could draw some conclusions from what you did here. Great content. Please keep it up!

If he had done that the 200 yard unsuppressed group would have been off the paper some rifle bullet suppressor combinations will let you do that but Zac knew this one would not work for that level of accuracy

Very informative video, this is Wade’s dad, we shoot everything suppressed. Really enjoyed presentation and down to earth approach. I will be checking out more videos. I enjoyed your podcast with Wade also,,, thank you

I'm a new subscriber and found your channel the other day. I'm from NE PA. I love the attention to detail and appreciate the work you put into the videos. I'm actually looking into putting together a general purpose rifle to compliment my 13.7 Foxtrot Mike I have now. Your info has been extremely helpful. I love the scenery around those wheat fields too. Keep up the great work.

Dang, l like this type of science.

Just honest talk without all the smartass bs. Well done as always. You are gonna go far.

I hope this guy wins the lottery so he can just do this for a full time living. Thanks for the info man

Only second video I’ve seen so far but I’m loving your style. Good quality and informative without faking excitement or flexing. I’ll definitely be going through the older videos.

Clear, concise and detailed video. You get down to where the goats graze without making the material boring.

You produce exceptionally informative videos. I appreciate that your data is based on real-world conditions and not just theory. I have been zeroing my rifles based on your data and observations. Please keep the videos coming!

Keep up the great work! You have my vote for next year's Gundys!

Great video, as usual. I love your content, easily the best on KZread. I like that you showed the re-zeroing once you removed the suppressor. I know this wasn't a long range shooting video, but I am just getting into long range and I watch and re-watch your videos, for info, often. Thank you for the content.

Another great video. Thanks for your work!

Been looking forward to this!

Good to see more content and your sub count growth. Your gonna hit 200k quick! Good stuff for new shooters

Thumbs up before even watching! Love your informative videos.

Great content once again. Always look forward to watching your new vids.

Boom. Great content, thanks for all your efforts

Thanks again for walking people through the process. Good review for some and good training for first-time shooters.

Keep these videos coming and I will keep watching 👍

Nice work, thanks.

You should have way more subscribers based on how good you are and the info you pass along. Hidden gem. Great stuff, hopefully KZread can come through and get you paid, if that’s one of your goals. If not, keep cranking out great stuff that really helps people.

Hell yeah, brother

Thx for the vid, comment for the algorithm

It would have been good to see how your suppressed zero would have worked without the suppressor. Great analysis as always!

It might be that you got some velocity boost with the suppressor attached. Just my 2 cents. Keep on doing the good work. I really enjoy your channel.

Good video.

Give this man a chronograph! I wonder if your bullet velocities are actually higher while using a suppressor 🤔

I actually have a couple chronographs but decided not to use one in this video as that’s not a tool most recreational shooters are going to have. If you’re curious though I’ve tested velocity changes suppressed/ unsuppressed In this video. Let me know if this data matches what you’re expecting for velocity change! Precision rifle FAQ.... Does adding a suppressor change performance? kzread.info/dash/bejne/aZOb29hrdZWbeZM.html

I'd like to see a comparison of twist rates with various ammo in ARs

Thank you for this video! 😊😊. It shows the impact does change when you add or remove a suppressor. It should all be accounted for in my opinion when zeroing your rifle. You need to know where it moves to if your suppressor gets shot or broken somehow during a fight.

Great vid. I think showing the re-zero after removing the can was critical because some may not know you have to do that. To that point, showing impacts if you don’t re-zero might also be interesting. I have heard new shooters say, its only a little shift, so I don’t re-zero.

Love the hat and the content!

Very good video sir. I can see why the suppressor shot a little better because of the extra length also. Seen this in a long distance video before. Still very good video

Love your channel. How about a piston vs DI suppressed battle zero shift? See if a harsher recoil affects your POI!? Some different mechanics happening there. My Superlative Arms piston upper runs without gas rings. They claim it improves accuracy. Awful curious how it stacks up. I have a DDC Enticer S can in jail otherwise I would attempt it myself. You have answered many of the questions I have been asking myself. Keep up the great work and excited for what’s to come!

👍

POI shift is the reason I have one rifle set up for dedicated suppressor use. The suppressor only gets removed for cleaning. And the suppressor is index marked so it always gets reinstalled in the same orientation.

Good video 👍👍

For me the question is how much difference will there be if I have zeroed my rifle THEN put on a suppressor. What does that do to my zero and I’ve found that some suppressors make a huge difference while with others there is no difference. In one case the orientation of the suppressor makes a large difference. I’ve also found that adding a can USUALLY tightens up my groups. Everything depends on your rifle and your can and testing is the only way to find out.

@kevinfinch126

6 ай бұрын

I had the same thought. Based on this info, seems like it makes sense to zero it 50/200 without the can, and then if and when when you add it, you’re probably still within a usable max point blank range.

Another great video! I would also be curious to compare POI shift of the Griffin can vs your Surefire can. (e.g. shoot 50 and 200 with two riffles - once suppressed and once unsuppressed without re-zeroing to compare the POI shifts).

What I find more interesting is what it dose to max expected fragmentation range, then what it does to the battle zero.

Cool Review as usual, I guessed the POI would be higher with the Suppressor since it's technically adding barrel length

@bradley6609

6 ай бұрын

More barrel harmonics than length the tip if the barrel is flipping like a jump rope in super slow motion just as the base of the bullet leaves the crown of the muzzle any changes to that tuning fork will change poi down range add to that back pressure from the can ect

Dude. Your videos are gold. You explain everything so my monkey brain can understand it. Keep up the good work.

my friend, the 50 yard zero was designed for a 16" barrel. other than that, great content.

I love your work. I would have also shot the same test again with a third set of groups after re installing the suppressor back on to make sure no zero shift & suppressor is consistent. Lesser quality mounts / suppressors will change POI every time.

The way you present these topics are perfect. You should be a teacher 😂

id like to see velocity in each video just a short section where you chrono the differences.

I see that you do use a 50-200yd zero! Proved it to be very close, even with short barrel and with or without the suppressor.

Great content. I’m curious what zero’s you recommend on 10.5” vs 16” 5.56 defensive rifles?

Good video. I would like to have seen groups without rezeroing when removing the can.

deep dive need my snorkel gear before i do think i miss place it in the garage some where geting old kinda sucks ; )

Always appreciate your content! Have often wondered: do you warm up your rifles/suppressors before starting to film? (especially dealing with first round pop/pressure differences when suppressed?)

@MountainsMulletsMerica

6 ай бұрын

I don’t make any kind of specific effort to warm things up. Normally though the rifles would be warm when shooting on camera. Prior to filming a scene I typically do things like check zero, check velocity, verify data at distance etc. Not trying to impact the results, just want to make sure the data on film is the most accurate as possible for the viewers.

@@MountainsMulletsMerica Totally get it! I think it's obvious you have to do some amount of exploration that doesn't make it to final cut. Some of your first round suppressed shots, historically, have looked like you're dealing with first round pop issues (as far as groups/consistency)

What rail panels are those? Also, your videos rock! 🤘

You should Chrono your rounds suppressed vs nonsuppressed...I've seen velocity changes across the can.

My Silencer Co Omega changes POI vertically by nearly 2" at 100 yards when installed, then removed with the same zero.

18" 6mm arc zero next!?

Oh video idea sir: can you repeatedly shoot different suppressors on and off - to find out if the POI change is consistently changing for the suppressors you have? Then it could be an easy note on your rifle for that adjustment.

Hey boss man, can you make a 6.5 Grendel SBR video seeing how far out you can take it?

Dwell time

I feel like groups open up a little with a suppressor. Especially on short barrels. Also, are you changing the gas when suppressed vs unsuppressed?

I'd like to see the same video but without re-zeroing between suppressed and unsurpassed.. just to see how far off you would be if you had your rifle zeroed and then put a suppressor on it suppressor on it

Looking for my first rifle. I hear savage 110 in 6.5and rugger precision 6.5 are good. I've been looking for at both but I don't know what rifle to pick. If money wasn't an issue I would pick both. But now I hear a debate between 6.5 Creedmoor and 300 crp. Need some help making the right choice . Again im just getting into this game!!!! Thanks in advance

I have an a2 carry handle with a mini acog attached & a 11.5 barrel an my height over bore is 3.5, how do I use the 36yard zero at 25 yards indoors range!? Do I come down an inch to make up the difference!? What should I do!? To make this useful for my setup

From what I understand suppressors effectively elongates the barrel, creating higher pressure and increases bullet velocity or am I wrong?

Should shoot little higher at 200 due to increased speed of the bullet. Shouldn't be much but 20 to 40 fps increase

Freebore boost is a real thing.

How about trying different brands of ammo, keeping everything else the same?

Usually, a can will impair the velocity slightly, causing a reduction of range by inches. But your data shows the can was shooting higher? Can you rotate the can 90 and 180 degrees to see if this was a bore alignment issue?

Are you using an H3 or H4 buffer ? The can with baffles creates a small increase in pressure behind projectile..
