[QUOTE="Coyote Shadow Tracker, post: 2298959, member: 116439"] Thanks for all that replied to help me out. I didn't expect to get all the responses. I modified a 223/5.56 pistol into a SBR to use for CC. (collapsible stock , front hand grip, Echo Tech, YHM Can). It's piston so I have several different "plugs" I made for use with or without a suppressor and also being able to cycle. As you can imagine it's a flame thrower with a 9 1/8" barrel without the can and VERY LOUD! Yes going subsonic <1,100fps is almost like using a 22 LR. I just wanted to do another use with trying to be real quiet. We already have enough rifles/pistols to do any type of hunting, this is just something I thought I would try. We live in an area where there is not any worry about noise or shooting. we shoot off my back deck and out of the garage plus have a 100 yrd range in the back property. Just wanted to see if I could load some cartridges up if I wanted to shoot at close range and have no noticeable rifle report with still an effective kill power. I will still use it loaded with 26.8gr of H4895 & SGK 65gr for hunting hogs in the bush or tracking a wounded animal. Thanks again for all your input! Len & Jill [/QUOTE]
