RileyAny preference for .22lr ammo to use in a suppressed pistol?
I picked up a Silencer Shop edition Ruger MKIV and a suppressor for it. Too much fun but needs broken in.
Anyway, I’ve just been shooting CCI Standard velocity out of it which is quiet. The subsonic CCI lists only a 20fps or so fps difference. 1070 v 1050.
I’m normally shooting MiniMags for reliability out of my other 22lr guns.
Are subs enough quieter or have you found a preference?

ChowserI use CCI-Quiet but only on bolt action or lever action. It usually won't cycle the semis.
It's listed at 710fps.
If I do single shot pistol use, then it's fine. I keep an old Beretta M9A1-22 with the CCI-Quiet for pest control.

RileyThanks. Needs to cycle a semi-auto.
