    The age old suppressor depate .22 edition

    Seem like 22s are all the rage now thanks to the horse, so im hoping there are a few more opinions out there.
    Im looking for a better sup for the 10/22, im running a $30 serious shooters can which is great for subs but now i want to run supers for more takedown power so i would like to upgrade, i was thinking of a dpt as that what i use on my centers but i dont know if they are going to be enough?
    Whats everyone using and are they happy with the performance?
    Cheers

    Are you running a over barrel or just forward?

    Or buy the MAE that I’m selling. It’d likely handle a 22 hornet.

    I have a 22 mag I use for rabbits , pretty loud with the suppressor I have on it at the moment. I have brought a DPT suppressor with 5 baffles to put on , need to cut the old thread off and get it rethreaded. Im hoping this quietens it right down.
    I am also in the market for a 10/22 ruger which I hope to use around the section as will be quiet and stealthy , the 22 mag is just too noisy at the moment and may scare the townie neighbours who don't understand shooting occurs on farms.

    I bet the old 22mag barks aye, i will be interested to know if the dpt rimfire sup brings it down much?

    The neighbours don't really mind , he has seen me out often enough when I was hunting with my air rifle. The 22 mag does have bit of a crack , I didn't actually realise you could get sub sonics for the 22 mag until someone suggested it on here.

    If you're going to run subs then you might as well just run a .22lr with subs.
