I use a wildcat panther on my .22 i like it alot
How much of a rush might you be in? I’m working with a couple of RFDs near Scarborough on a newly designed moderator that’ll be available in both RF and CF.
The RF version ‘sounds’ extremely quiet; I’m currently waiting for a working prototype to test on my .22 and will keep you posted if you’d like!

Another vote for Parker Hale, almost silent with subs.

I’m using a cheap mod that’s been on the 22 for 10 years and all I hear is the pin hitting the cartridge and the bang from the rabbits head. Subs and mods shouldn’t really hear much other then that
There's very little difference in sound level with any of the moderators designed for use with 22 subsonics
SAK is probably the cheapest and just as good as much more expensive models.
Don't be swayed by hyped up claims of special designs and materials.
A 22 subsonic round has very little powder in it so it doesn't take a large volume to handle the gas produced by firing.
Go down to your local RFD - he probably has loads of old moderators lying around so you should be able to pick one up for small money

Indeed WB , a SAK …. Dont see any reason to change as I can’t think it could get any quieter .

Contact wildcat, I’m sure .17 and .22 baffles are interchangeable for the panther.

Agreed, SAK is cheap and light + effective. Always liked the look and spec of A-Tec mods but haven’t used one. Their rimfire model I think is called a Wave from memory.

I have two a-tec mods. One is cmm4 and the other is wave, they’re completely different. The wave that’s made now is also different to my early wave, both of mine are good.
I've got one of these on the .17 and .22, knocks spots off the pakerhale by miles
