Going to start working up a new 6.8 load for 12.5" SBR. It will wear a Saker 762 most, if not all, of the time. What's the general consensus here? Do the ladder/accuracy node/chrono work with the suppressor mounted or without?

100% with suppressor! The suppressor will add some pressure to the load, and can change up the barrel harmonics. Often times the load that shoots the best with no can is not the load that shoots the best with a can.

Agree with Chad, if you are going to be using the gun suppressed work up the load with the suppressor.

100% what they said.
If you're gonna shoot it suppressed, work up the load suppressed. That's a weight hanging off the end of the barrel. Along with what Chad said, you have a whole new set of harmonics with versus without suppressor.
