Gonna buy a can...

[Bullet Splatter]

I played that game about 10 years ago and was not satisfied. It didn't quiet down anything and I had to practically give it away to the class 3 dealer so I could get rid of it. Lesson learned. I'm never buying a suppressor ever again. The class 3 dealer said "man, if you weren't happy with the noise suppression of a 22lr suppressor then you won't be happy with any larger caliber suppressor either." Fair enough. Never looked back.

What rimfire can did you get that didn’t do anything? Did it have any baffles? Usually a dedicated rimfire can on a 22 is night and day difference.

I don't remember the brand. Funny, I can picture the box but not what the box said. It was name brand, though. I bought it at Jay's Guns, not mail order or any kind of kiosk. You know, that's what Jay's Guns reaction was. They looked at it and said it was perfectly functional.

I haven't efiled a form 4, so I don't know how those are working these days. I've form 1'd 5 stamps and 4 of them are aliexpress solvent traps (most expensive $50) consider drilling the holes yourself for a cost savings

Are any of these stainless?

 

[Q2arrowhunter]

Pretty much in the same boat. Was looking at getting a .30 cal and a .22lr can at the same time, but even going the cheaper route (not too cheap, just not Dead Air sadly lol), it's like $1500+ and a year to wait...I can buy a lot of ammo or a few good guns for that price.

I did a Trust and bought a Huntertown 22 Guardian and a Masterpiece Arms S 308 Defender (suppressor) and was under $1k total with stamps and only waited 5 months. Neither can is made anymore, but both do what they are supposed to do when they are supposed to do it.

I've got a good mix, 1 full stainless, 1 with stainless cups/aluminum body, 1 all aluminum, and 1 full titanium

Should have bought one in January. I would be picking it up in June. May get the two piece one I looked at. Have to go look at them again. Rats.

 

[Rebel_Rider1969]

The hybrid can is a decent do all can buy it's heavy on smaller calibers.

I went with an oculus for 22. Still waiting.
Really need 3 cans to cover everything.

Did you get the oculus yet???

Figured as much as I use em a 22 can would be the best choice. Cp33 with brace, pmr30, cmr30, 15-22 pistol. Sadly my space guns are not threaded :-( sux.

J. how effective will the can be on .22 mag being there are no sub-sonic loads that I am aware of?

Winchester makes a 45 grain subsonic in 22 magnum.

Yeah, I thought the same thing, but any reduction on 22 mag is a good thing. I've seen unobtainable 22 mag sub ammo in the past. It defeats the point of 22 mag though. The can would make shooting the pmr30 more pleasant. I have a linear comp on it now but it's still loud. (Spacegun!)

 

[FLT]

For what it’s worth, A 22 hornet isn’t much louder than a 22 LR when suppressed. But it has more energy at 200 yards than a 22 magnum has at the muzzle.

You'll get a good report still. When I first used my .22 suppressor I thought "dang...this thing is broke!". But, not so much when you shoot subsonic ammo, which is what "fixed" it. Then you see the real benefit of a suppressor.

Anyone own an AB Raptor? Read lots of good things about them. Considering one for a 375 Raptor build. Seems fitting.

Yep, I like to hunt with mine. The literal "catch-22" of cans. Shoot once with HV or 3? with LV for the same effect but less noise. My non scientific testing on dillos has proved this, btw. Ymmv.

 

[Shadowtech]

Although it would be cool to have a can or 2.
I just can’t get past the cost/benefit analysis!

Dillos can be tough customers, particularly with a .22. Good for squirrel hunting tho. They don't notice the speed loss so much. If you'd really like a thumper in the 22ish range, you'll need to bump up, IMO. Lots of good centerfires in that range. But, heck SS .223 as well. Doesn't really give you much in the way of a quiet and relatively cheap "plinker" tho.

To hear some tell it, you shouldn't even be in the woods without one. Real big with the western guys--they'd make you think you should be ashamed to not have one on every gun, at least based on their "forum talk".

Mine are what I'd consider special purpose. I personally do not hunt big game with a suppressor and don't see any real reason to. Just my opinion. They should have just made them a regular firearm back years ago. Likely never happen now.

Still pending. I'm 300+days now

My first go round ran over a year. Good luck!

I paid for a warlock today, and a ruger 10/22 stainless talo varmit hunter. Dealer said it should be about 4 months after i send the paperwork

Are you e-giling?

Mailed paper is unlikely to come back in four months.
