There's nothing more fun than a whisper quiet .22, I have a CZ455 with a 16 inch threaded barrel. I'm using the AB "little bird" suppressor, its whisper quiet,
and weighs only two oz's, the diameter is really close to the barrel itself, and only adds another six inches, it looks like I just have a bull barrel on this rifle, believe this thing retails for about 349. from the Gun Barn in Otisville, One of my favorite rounds to shoot is Winchester's, 42gr. Subsonic with the large hollow point, extremely accurate and deadly on red squirrels.
i occasionally switch to my suppressor ready browning buck mark pistol, love to shoot the CCI's 45 gr. quiets, made for the semi-autos, talk about something fun, i would compare the noise level to something like a Daisy Cub bb gun. very hard to beat. Also have a suppressor ready Anschwitz 1517 thumbhole in 17 HMR. that works very well with ABs little bird.
Sitting on my deck with a good cigar, there's nothing better as I wait for the enemy to appear, the red squirrel

I’m a huge fan of lightweight, low-profile suppressors like the Little Bird. I like anything that hugs the barrel and doesn’t turn my rifle into a boat :ROFLMAO:
 
Have tried CCIs as well and I can vouch to that. I remembered the first time I shot them, I couldn’t stop laughing at just how soft they were.

Curious about the best group you’ve ever seen at 50 yards using that combo? Are there any other ammos that got your attention for its accuracy?

I have been more of a vermin hunter then a paper shooter with the CZ 22 LR, but as far as I can tell using my favorite Winchester, 42 gr sub. ammo, I'm about a 1/2 inch and 50 yd. but I can tell you this the same suppressor used with the pictured Anschutz 17HMR,
Without the suppressor I'm getting the same hole at 50 yd, with any CCI ammo, incredible accuracy, when I add the suppressor, i got the same incredible accuracy, the only difference the point of impact was about one inch lower.
 
My next project, I plan on building a 300 blackout on a AR platform, with most likely the AB Raptor suppressor, forced reset trigger, should be good.

Sounds awesome! The accuracy you're getting is great, and the POI shift looks more like a tuning or zeroing tweak than a real concern.
