    Load development - suppressed or not?

    If you are shooting suppressed 75% of the time then do your load development that way. Once you have a good load, remove the suppressor, fire a group and note the POI difference In angular units (MOA or Mils), if any. Incorporate this difference into your calculations whenever shooting unsuppressed.

    Suppressors Ordered my first one tonight.....

    It can never be modified to contain any other NFA items because there is only the one singular item allowed. Once it has been approved you would still enjoy all the benefits of a regular trust going forward. You could also start out with multiple trustees when first applying if you so desired...

    Lying to my ballistic calculators

    You can adjust MV and BC to get things to match more closely. However, I would not be screwing around changing the sight height.
