Would like to get the quietest suppressor for a 10/22.
Size and weight don't matter - just sound attenuation. |

Any decent rimfire can will get you down to action noise of the 10/22.
Ammo selection is equally if not more important. |

This question is not as objective as you might think. All the first line companies sell quiet ones.
Beyond that, assuming you're using subsonic ammo, your host will make a big difference. Any semi auto will make more noise due to the working of the action and the amount varies from gun to gun. Bolt action rifle with low power rounds like CCI Quiet is the best on noise, but even pistols are pretty dang quiet. |

Rugged Oculus.
Really in the 22 cans it's about the lack of first round pop. |

Liberty Pinnacle II - In reality nearly any quality rimfire can using standard velocity ammo will sound great. I do love my Pinnacle but my other rimfire cans sound about the same on 16"-18" barrels.

On top of the can, get a after market cushioned buffer for the bolt. It will quiet down the slap of the bolt.
As mentioned, any top end can will work very well on a 10/22. |

I would say any decent non monocore will be okay with first round pop. My selection criteria was
non monocore Stainless baffles Tube is sealed off from the inside Click together baffles, etc Easily disassembled .17hmr rated Able to be shot wet without ruining warranty Ammo is important Standard velocity is good Winchester 42gr max subsonic is a little quieter, plus heavier, and a hollowpoint I need to try gemtech ammo I used a kidd buffer to quiet the action If you shoot it wet, the first round pop isn't as noticeable if you have a little |

First round pop isn't as much of an issue on rifle hosts as it is on pistol hosts. Look at Dead Air's FRP Face-off - there's almost a 14 dB spread between the best and worst performing can and only 4 dB difference between the cans (2.4 if you don't count the Sparrow which could be considered an outlier).

I have a Sparrow on a rifle and the FRP is a non-issue. Sounds like hell on a pistol, but it's a nice rifle can.
The Element 2 sounds awesome too, just sucks to clean. If the Halcyon sounds anything like the Element 2, that's what I'd probably go with. |

Q's El Camino is getting a lot of good reviews - still pretty new though. Any experiences out there?

OP
I have a lot of 22 cans, I currently run between the sparrow and element. I had the gemtech oasis-r but its filled up and accuracy sucks. I think its tie between the two. I usually run the sparrow more on the rifle because the element gest used on the pistols a lot more. |

Gemtech MIST 22, on a PWS Summit Rifle, Gemtech 22 Ammo, spooky quiet and will make you think you had a light strike when it fires. Quietest 22 setup I've ever personally fired.

Joey No arguments from me on that - although it is stretching things a bit if OP's intention is a standard semi-auto 10/22 action. 
Was this your handiwork, Joey?

Have:
AAC Aviator 2 Dead Air Mask Hunterstown Guardian 22 (2) Gemtech GM 22's Gemtech Outback II Tactical Innovations TAC65 Between those the TAC65 is the "quietest" on my 10/22's right now. Haven't had much time with the Mask yet. |

Every suppressed 10/22 owner needs to have this on their rifle. Now you can swap between semi auto or single shot for super quiet work. I love mine and have it on all of my 10/22s.
Colossic bolt stop |

Quote History I guess you could use a magnet and stick it on the barrel when not firing. I prefer to be able to swap almost immediately and keep my rate of fire in single shot faster with the collosic. To each his own though.

How does the collosic lock in single or semi. I saw the roll pin on their site. Is it just pinch together and push the pin or what? It looks like a neat idea if you need to be completely quiet ie in town, etc. I don't know how much I would use it though. The action cycling isn't that loud on mine after a little polish job and a kidd buffer. I do wish there was a way to have an o ring machined into the bolt or breech face to stop that steel on steel as it closes though. The collosic would be nice with cci quiet ammo. It sometimes half eject the spent brass. It would be nicer to just cycle the action instead of clear then cycle, but for $60.... If I shot quiets more I would just get the volquartsen firefly bolt.
