And necessarily heavier than a can like the Mask which is rated up to 5.7x28, so 22mag is no problem.
Once you get a suppressor, you will not stop at one.
They should be on everything and the fees and wait time is ridiculous.
Quoted for truth.
I'm up to 5 and am looking at a big bore can now.
OSU Sig,
I can tell you from experience, You're just getting started.
Teeder,
You need as a minimum a rimfire can and a centerfire rifle can. Really feel you need two rimfire cans. Personally, except for PCC's I don't see the point of a can on a centerfire pistol, adds too much length, YMMV.
Rimfire, I'd pick up a dead air mask. It is one of the few cans that is purported to be 'Quiet' with a rimfire pistol. Mine certainly is, my other rimfire cans not so much.
Centerfire, I can not keep track of them, hopefully you can try one at a shop or a shoot. I've got a couple of thunderbeasts, but am going to a shoot some shop is putting on to find a can for my 5.56.
A can on any supersonic round (22 Magnum for instance) will not suppress the supersonic crack. How quiet it will seem to your ears will, besides the can, be determined by the environment that you shoot it in... in an open field it will be extremely quiet, in a gully or forest where the sound will reflect off of the canyon walls or off of trees it will be much more noticeable.
People bitch about how expensive cans are, or/and the $200 tax==> Price hearing aids and you'll see that they are a bargain. And at some point you'll be needing hearing aids if you shoot much in the field.
