Suppressed 22 LR accuracy

[MaraviaDave]

Has anyone compared the accuracy of their 22 LR, shooting suppressed versus without the suppressor? Did accuracy improve with a suppressor? What distances were you shooting? What rifle/suppressor/ammo were you shooting?

Generally, accuracy with rimfires is better un-suppressed.

I've been shooting suppressed 22LR since the mid 80's. I think, the extra weight helps any 22 sporting rifle with accuracy. Furthermore, it might help some and not others. The gas travels faster then the bullet so suppressor design might be a factor. Then you might have people that actually think it won't help and others that say it will. Take your pick. I say it will.
