I think it has something to do with gas turbulence.

Yes. Changing the way the gases flow on exit from the barrel will change your point of impact. Also, torquing the new device on may change barrel harmonics. This is supposed to happen. Stop changing your muzzle device.

Mine works really well as a thread protector when I'm not using my suppressor...

Not 22 LR... but when I cut off a permed PWS 556 brake and put on my AAC silencer mount, my POI moved like 5 inches at 50 yards!

I was shocked.
