There is. I do this in CFD packages. When a round is fired, the column of gases in the barrel are part of the ejecta. When a HV round leaves the barrel, it is flying supersonically backwards. That is why the base of the bullet affects accuracy (specifically nutation). The suppressor strips the gases off in a more controlled manner, and sooner, thus increasing accuracy (with a good can). BUT...

This is better advice.
