    Default Suppressed bolt action .22 rifle?

    Holy crap, is this for real? Is a suppressed .22 bolt rifle really this quiet? (Subsonic ammo, I presume) If so, I'm gonna start saving my pennies NOW!

    Yep. I've been around a couple of guys with supressed 22 bolt guns. It's weird to squeeze off a shot and actually hear the sound of the trigger mechanism working.

    Lots of us have them. At matches we sometimes need to tell the spotter when we're shooting because the sound of a few guys talking makes it hard to hear when the gun goes off. i put a new shooter behind mine, and he thought the gun had not fired until he saw the target move.

    They're pretty quiet.

    Don't forget ammunition used is a determining factor as well. Sub-sonic vs high velocity,....

    I have no issue with most 22 ammo in the bolt actions. Of course the lower velocity stuff is one of a firing pin falling, CLICK and alittle push of air as the round exits the suppressor.
    If you want a bolt action 22 for it's ease of suppression. You should road test my lever action 38/357

    Just to make him pull his hair out... you should hear the 15/22 running subsonics.. or not hear it rather.

    The manual on my 15/22 specifically says not to use subsonic rounds. Have you had any issues with this?

    Not yet. The squirrels have the issues with it. Hypothetically. I tried a few subs and no issues.
