Building the world's quietest .22 LR rifle

That's terrible! What happened?

Old age - I have Parkinson's, dysautonomia and degenerative spine.

Would you also suggest a Twinkie for a silencer in this scenario? 🤔

Always!

It's the only suppressor I use! 🤣



I like a relish spreader taped under the barrel for a Twinkie rest. Cover the spreader with peanut butter, so the Twinkie doesn't fall off inadvertently.

The longer the barrel the quieter. Bolt 22s are really good to shoot suppressed. The bullet impact is usually louder than the pop from the gun.

Especially if you shoot .22 Short.

Fellow comrades - might this be the correct version you all have been referencing in this thread?

most likely so. Either this FVSR or the CZ 457 are the most recommended

I run this with an AAC Element. I ran 200 rds through it today. The plastic stock is meh so most upgrade to the boyds tactacool stock. It ends up becoming a bench babe and not something you're going to hike a few miles with through the woods. The bolt from the factory is rough while running it so a bit of lapping compound took care of that without removing the finish much.

Trashed the Athlon scope. It wears Tim's old PST now... Yes, the sling is backwards but its so front heavy, I carry it barrel down as that is its most stable configuration.
