    Great rifle, def worth the effort of getting a suppressor. Even for bunnies it'll reduce the booming echo rolling around to a smart crack.



    Suppressed .223 shooting Hornady 55gr ammo at rabbits, there's a crack but you can also clearly hear the thud of impact, across the valley. And that ammo is pretty cheap, @$39/50 and shoots very straight.

    TBH, spend money well, don't always go for the cheapest as it'll stop you being able to spend more later. I know, kinda Zen
