What's up with the camo jacket, Ken? I thought it was already Hawaiian shirt time for you up there.

One click difference in POI with the can on vs. can off is pretty good. What is the barrel profile? On my 26" med-Palma, it's a little bit more than that.

Yeah, got it. I've noticed that different AI brakes (same model) will give different POI on my rifles. So I match up the brake to the barrel so the brake <-> suppressor POI shift is minimized.

22mm is pretty thick-- just a tad thinner than my 24" AWP barrel.
