Ok my rifle came in and going to pick it up and do the paper work or online for the Suppressor. Got a Bergara BMR, haven't picked out the suppressor yet or the scope. I'll look at suppressors tomorrow when I'm doing the paper work. Don't know anything about the Bergara's other than what I've heard here and so far not hearing anything bad.

I've got a PSA .22 that my son loves shooting. Already filed the paperwork for the suppressor. Can't wait to try it out.

There are a few brands out there that have minimal point of impact shifts.. might wanna do some reading on rimfire central or maybe accurate shooter.. or even snipershide. I don’t know what brands do what so I’m no real help but if I was looking for one and the info to get it right the first time I’d prolly look at and trust what folks say on the ole snipers hide.

My 2 cents

Did a little paper punching with my suppressed 10/22 in the backyard this afternoon. Perfect shooting weather and not much that's more fun to shoot than a suppressed 22.

I own a Silencerco Spectre II. It is very well made, easy to clean, and works well with my pistol and rifle. I have not had a chance to test it on a bolt action. Read, study, get educated. Then buy.

Best of luck.

I ordered my suppressor (SilencerCo Sparrow), but still need the gun. Was considering a 10/22 or the M&P 15-22. Anyone have any feedback on these?

Q El Camino is hard to beat and I have put about 10,000 rounds through mine with zero issues. It's rated for full auto 5.7 and I shoot a 22 hornet though it frequently. The way the baffles fit together, gunk can't physically get on the inside of the tube, so you never have to clean the tube. Just clean the baffles with a sonic cleaner or "The dip". I use the dip method. The dip costs about 10 cents a cleaning every 600-700 rounds.

I thought about using my 10-22 but I wanted to make sure I could use a wide variety of ammo without a feeding problem. Mine doesn't like subsonic rounds plus I can feed shorts through the bolt action if I need to.

A bolt action rifle 22 with a suppressor is one of my absolute FAVORITE things to shoot. I love it to practice precision, for plinking and almost anything.
Good luck. Hope you enjoy it as much as i do.


I'm a dude who likes long barrels!

I own a Spectre II
I did a lot of rimfire suppressor testing for the Silencer Shop and honestly, there is not that much difference in any of them sound wise.
I would always recommend one that is rated for 22 mag.

Shooting subs with a bolt action suppressed 22 is quieter than a pellet rifle.

Got it all put together this morning after I left the shop. Vortex 2x7, Leupold rings. Did the ranch rock sight in and I'm good to go. Now just wait on the Fed's. Very light rifle with a great trigger. Bolt's a little rough but I suspect will smooth out over time.

You got a really nice rifle with great potential. Try some premium ammo. You might really be surprised how accurate it can be. Not sure how far you want to take it but with a higher power scope and maybe a little chamber work by Alamo Precision. you could really shoot out there

FWIW, I have a Sliencerco Switchback rimfire suppressor. It can be set to different lengths for rifle or pistol. VERY Versatile.

The 10/22 has countless options so I'd go that route. As far as the Sparrow it has a noticeable "first round pop", but a nice 22 suppressor.

Haven't put it on paper yet. just bouncing it of rocks but it looks to be about and inch high at 50 yards and was splashing the same spot. Just running some cheap Winchester ammo through it now but will switch over to Stingers once i put it on paper. It's for close work, if i need to stretch out I'll use the 17 WSM.

Nothing cci makes is premium ammo, stick to the standard velocity stuff like sk, Lapua, eley.

I'll stick to Stingers if you don't mind, I like their performance on critters. It's a hunting rifle not a match rifle.

If you stick with stingers you probably should not get a suppressor as it is Pointless. It will shine with standard velocity ammo and noise reduction.

I’m,Ike my Deadair Mask suppressor

I've got subsonic ammo for when I want to be quiet but it will see Stingers more than any other ammo.

Standard velocity will be sub quiet and more accurate

Have fun

Compared to my Element it's a noticeable difference, but Element is probably the quietest 22 can and no FRP.
