What the quietest 45 for shooting out of a silencer?  The Magtech 230gr I have must be hotter then the American I was shooting.  I'm shooting a HK Mark23 and a FN FNX-45 Tactical with an Osprey on them.  Just trying to get some opinions on better ammo choices.

Thanks!

tagged....though I don't think it's possible to get 45 ACP very quiet.  I was actually sort of disappointed after shooting my Osprey through USP tactical..i was like.."is that it"?

I use an Osprey on a S.A. MC Operator and find it just slightly louder than my Glock 17 using 147 loads. I only used American Eagle so far.

Must be my hearing but I found it quiet enough.

You could always do the bullseye loads with just enough N310 to get the pistol to cycle reliably... potentially with a reduced-power recoil spring.

Clays powder using .45 RN chronys at less than 675 ft/sec.
That should work just fine.
