the 22 pistol has to be the loudest thing on the planet. Tomorrow I'm helping a buddy around his FIL place in the woods.

He told me today he came across a few rattle bugs int he love making business.

It would be nice to have a pistol with rat shot vs a 20 Ga shotgun tomorrow.

Only i find the 22 pistol one loud hearing reducing firearm.

Not even close.

I would expect, as Judd said, shot will strike the baffles.

You can do it ONCE.


It is far more important to be able to hit the target than it is to haggle over who makes a weapon or who pulls a trigger.

Pistols are loud, if you have a suppressed 22 pistol just shoot regular ammo.

I don't think 22LR rat shot is very loud. Try one without the can and see what you think.

Ratshot out of a 22 is pretty quiet actually, unless your in a small garage.
