22LR can recommendation
I have the Dead Air Mask and I think it’s great. I use it on my Ruger 22/45 lite and a Winchester Wildcat. They are very accurate with the Mask.The Mask is light and quiet. It’s easy to clean, as much as .22 ammo is easy to clean up after.

Another vote for the Dead Air Mask; I love mine, though I’ve only got a few hundred rounds through it. It’s great on my 22/45, 10/22 Takedown, and now on my Ruger American Rimfire Target. From behind the rifle, wearing ear pro (I was at a public range) I couldn’t even hear anything. My buddy at the firing point next to me said it was like a cap gun. With the 22/45 (and the 10/22) all I ever heard was the action operating.

Hopefully I never have any issues with it where I have to find out about Dead Air’s CS. But the Mask itself is wonderful.

either of the above posts bother to read the thread? The OP bought a Rugged Occulus... Which in the context of DA being fubared on support is probably the next best thing.

I would expect a "used" price to be $350.....
Still have to pay the $200 tax stamp thru any dealer.


Got it for 320. Has about 50 rounds through it.

I’ve got a CAT AlleyCat .22 coming in about 10 days I can give a review of. According to PewResearch it’s the best .22 can they’ve ever tested for performance numbers.

But I’m guessing to the average shooter it sounds about like a Mask or Oculus

That's a nice score on a practically new can.

The review on Pew looks like that is very quiet.
But I'd never heard of the brand and when I looked it seems that its support is in the deadair category of totally sucks. Is that true.
