[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 389049, member: 12"] Really depends on what you plan on shooting. I have a Hornet (Ruger rifle and Contendor pistol) and the Whisper (15" Encore pistol barrel) both are quiet with the edge to the whisper with the 240s at subsonic levels. Hammer whatever they hit too, but drop big time from 100-200 yards. The whisper will require an 8 twist barrel (custom) to shoot the 240s and mine loves the 125 Btips at 2300 fps (not quiet) and the 240s (subsonic and very quiet). Both shoot into 1 MOA and the 240s are 2" lower at 100 than the 125 Btips. Both can be loaded down to reduce noise even further. BH [/QUOTE]
