Quiet guns

[marshrat]

I have a few undesirables hanging out around my house and attacking my ducks. I have them completely fenced in from above and around, but the coons, skunks, etc are on the prowl. I have been looking into maybe a Gamo Whisper or some sort of low noise pellet gun but with plenty of power. Also been kicking around a Sig Mosquito with suppressor. Any experience with this? Information on accuracy, noise, etc would be appreciated.

Sig is an excellent 22.

You might not have any ducks left by the time you get your stamp for a suppressor.

Benjamin Marauder is something you might want to look into.

How far out do you need to shoot? I shoot backyard varmints with CB caps out of a .22 rifle. As quiet - or quieter - than a pellet rifle but not much range. I have had good luck on squirrels out to about 25 yards but it is only travelling about 700fps so it drops a lot after that. ( Also, they won't cycle in an autoloader)

This ^^^^^^Sounds like our bow forum has turned into a gun forum.

Aqui????? Powderless .22 shells get mine from midway. About like a pellet rifle noise wise but bigger slug. On accurate to about 15 yards. Be careful they carry and penetrate farther then you would think.

These do not have enough power to kill anything larger than a field mouse. I shot a cotton tail rabbit with one a few months back and he ran off like he was not even hit.

.22 with subsonic. We use out of a rifle and all you hear is pretty much hammer/pin hit.
