POI shift?

[daved20319]

Sorry if this is a dumb question. I've seen multiple comments re: POI shift with asymmetric cores. Does this mean the POI shifts around at random with the can installed, i.e. buggers up the accuracy, or is it a consistent shift in POI, say 1" right and a 1/2" high with the can installed vs. no can? Still in the planning stages of my first Form 1 build, planning a mono-core as that's more appropriate to my machining skills and tools, and am looking at different designs. Thanks!

POI is always consistent once suppressor is seated. It may change slightly if the suppressor is removed and replaced. All suppressors will change the POI because of weight alone, some exhibit greater shift because of baffle design.Asymmetrical baffles often have the greatest shift with the largest performance gain. A suppressor normally increases accuracy one that dose not usually has issues with baffle strikes.

Thanks, Capt., that's what I was hoping to hear. It's official, I finally got payment to go through on my Form 1, so now it's just waiting. Good time to brush up on my machining skills, I haven't run my lathe in well over a year, and not much better on my mill . More to come, I'm sure, both questions and, eventually, build progress . Later.
