    I built my 9.5" barrelled .300blk pig to be super quiet with extra baffles robbed from 2 modular suppressors , and it is whisper quiet but i find when I go hunting I just shoot supers because it never misses and I don't need to get the range 100% accurate, I can't remember why i actually needed a quiet gun...

    Yes that is the problem with subsonic hunting constantly using a rangefinder. I do that sometimes too running supers in open county and pre dial up the average range say 150m or 180m then just point and shoot or if I have got time and a good rest swap back to subs and redial easy as, best of both worlds.

    I have always liked the Ruger 77/44, a mates got one and shot a lot of fiorland deer and it's very quick to shoulder. With supers I think it's the ultimate close range pissing down with rain roar gun. It will put a world of hurt on any deer that get hit. Never seen a deer go far from being hit with one.
