First shot

Be careful -- low-volume ratio loads can detonate. Mangement not responsible for load data. Use at your own risk.

First shot

Post by Badhabit »

This may have been discussed before, so I apologize in advance. Why does the first shot out of my suppressor seem louder than all the following?

Google FRP ... first round pop

Although the acronym once spelled out is fairly self explanatory.

Chalk it up to a combination of design, load, available oxygen in the suppressor chambers, altitude, etc.
