    The name 300whisper also sets this calibre up to fail in terms of expectations. Mine is 16" barrel and is very loud, however its considerably quieter than most other rifles...so I've lowered my expectations to match reality.

    Years ago I built a subsonic 308 on a Brno with a big Gunworks suppressor it must have had a 18-20" or so barrel.

    With 210 VLDs & Trail boss it was indeed as quiet as a subsonic 22.

    It weighed as much as my Rem 700 LSS 300 Rum & didn't kill as well

    But it was heaps of fun..... Whish........THUMP

    Edit...or did I use Trail Boss.... I did use Dacron filler...maybe it was before Trail Boss... can't remember...getting old....
