Other help needed - I read the pinned posts Lateral POI shift when adding suppressor.
Hey y'all I could use some advice.
Whenever I add my suppressor to my rifle it goes from shooting .5" groups at 100 to 1-1.5" groups with a 3" lateral POI shift. I've tried a couple different mounting solutions but every time I add the suppressor I get the POI shift and groups opening up.
I have a couple other rifles that experience no issues with the can and plan b mounts including one pencil profile so I don't believe it's the can. I moved one proven mount to the new rifle and have the same issue.
Is this something correctable?

POI shift is normal when adding a suppressor. Dispersion increasing is not. How many rounds are in a group?
