I have been hunting with a suppressed 12.5" group buy barrel for several seasons now. Killed both hogs and deer with it out to 125 yards, primarily with 129 ABLR running 2174 MV (26.9gr AR Comp with a 2.265 COAL, Hornady brass, and CCI450 primers). Did a neck shot on a nice buck at 122 yards and it never flinched, dropped and never moved a twitch. First suppressed kill and was hooked ever since.

What is so awesome about this setup is I also have a near identical POI and trajectory (45 near zero - 170 far zero with 1.5" high at 100 yds) using 120gr Nosler BT running 2204 fps (27.6 AR Comp, 2.23 COAL 1.71 OTB, Hornady brass, CCI450 primers).

This year I may change somethings and run either the 120 NBT or 120 Gold Dot which I am working on now. These combinations carry 1000 ft pounds to 150 yards for 120 gr and 200 yards with 129 gr if that is your goal.
