    At this stage I am wanting to stick to 120-123gr.

    So what Velocities are people getting out of a 120-123gr Howa Mini 20" + DPT Over Barrel Suppressor?

    I would be happy with the 120gr Barnes TTSX BT doing just over 2500fps if possible.

    Barnes would be too hard unless at point blank or there of. 123 ELDM or SST will give you what you are looking for. I get close to 2500 from a 17" barrel & DPT. Another option could be Nosler BT. Use BM8208 powder and BR4 primer.
