I got a Trail-Lite barrel from MidwayUsa for my Buckmark and some CCI 40gr subsonic ammo for the Shaw Armament Thunder Can MiniBeast.
Only rubber rats were harmed for the video. In the barn, that's a different story. I need a phone mount for the pistol.

Awesome sound. When I put my Dead Air Mask on my TX22, I was grinning ear to ear as well. I but mine was quite a bit louder, but there is nothing like shooting a suppressed 22.

in the context of youtube and not measuring equipment, everything I own (maybe a dozen of them) is about the same. Not sure why your mask would be louder?? Mine would not be.

Oh, I wasn't shooting subs. It was still very quiet, as 22 is very easy to suppress, it just wasn't "optimal".

The HushBucky just runs with the CCI subsonic.

I have some 22 colibri (primer only) ammo with a suppressed bolt action, it is stupid quiet. good for mice
Not minority enough!

suppressed bolt action sounds like a 'rifle'. I thought those colibri were limited to very short barrel lengths. how long a barrel are we talking that you found ok to use?

yep. 16". if you don't hear impact, you stop and check the barrel or suppressor. don’t shoot them often. just a round here or there to show someone. Normally use CCI Quiets.
colibri is sooo weak.

I use Calibri in my 16" bolt gun unsuppressed.
They really don't need suppression. CB longs in a pistol do, but not really in a rifle. We shoot them all night long killing rats in chicken houses.

I use them in my Savage MKII 21” bolt gun and they work fine-don’t believe everything you hear in the internet.

Don't ignore it either. I stuck a colibri in one of my .22 rifles with a 22" barrel. Just poking out of the muzzle.
