Lowest powered / quietest 22 round

[StuP]

I seem to get mixed results searching the web for the quietest 22 round.

Prime contenders are 22 CB, 22 BB or the Agulia Colibri, (all in just primer powered guise).

The colibri seems to be the leader. Anyone with practical experience ?

Colibri, will take squirrels with good hits and are quieter than my pellet gun.

shoot mistletoe down with ease and the HOA never knows about it,

I've never used anything weaker than CBs and CCI's new 22 LR "quiet" cartridge.

Both are VERY quiet when fired from a rifle.

Both are a lot louder fired from a handgun. The pressure inside the barrel is still fairly high when the bullet exits after sliding only 4 or 5 inches. But by the time the bullet has gone 20 inches down the rifle-length tube, the internal pressure has dropped a lot.

I've had a few colibra stick in long barrel bolt action
Cci quiet always clears the muzzle

Same db level to my naked ear

Probably the Colibri .

My 22 well shoot shorts an longs ,both of which are quieter than the cci quiet I bought.. By shoot I mean bolt action n a semi.

Seems like the vote is going Colibri way, also much cheaper !

Use a quality can and CCI standards at 1050FPS. The squirrels never know what hit them and it is quiet enough to shoot more than one crow before they fly!!!!

All those pretty quiet choices.
If neighbors can still hear those
try running leaf blower or lawn
mower while target shooting.
