Hmmm... Yes it is. Going this route I'm thinking the smaller case and bullet diameter the quieter it would be. I see that the 357 mag isnt offered, I was thinking with heavy bullets, but the 38 sp...

Even less .003"

Here's some loaded 220 gr subsonic 7.62x39, I don't know of a .311 220 gr bullet so I assume it's .308 diameter. http://www.ebr-inc.net/detail.asp?id=3

Didn't know that Pug. That explains why the long barreled 45ACP is louder than I expected. How much quieter would a 9mm 147 grain subsonic load be in the same length barrel?



Now THAT'S a...

I've never been on a hog hunt so I don't know if a standard .45ACP would be enough. I know that a Marlin 45 Carbine will handle +P and .45 Super ammo with a stiffer Wolfe recoil spring, I'm hoping...

You're right, it would be more powerfull and have better range and I considered that. Lee makes some bullets molds that I like. 500 gr HP with a .443 BC, I've forgotton the BC for the 405 gr HP right...

Most people that I've talked to agree with JF about the sound level. A bit louder than I expected to discover but that's life.

I won't be getting a Taurus Thunderbolt afterall since the sound...

I finally got a response from a guy shooting standard pressure 45ACP from a rifle. It was CCI Blaser 230 gr with the brass case, Midway says 850 fps from a pistol. I asked him about his gun and how...

I'd rather have a long barreled Marlin Camp 45 but I might get one of these and see if the long barrel quiets those 45ACP pressure loads. Winchester has factory 225 gr HP Long Colt loads at 930 fps...

I agree, the best way is probably to have someone make a .45 barrel for a Marlin, Savage or Mauser and test it. A chronograph would be helpfull too. Use hot loads and keep cutting off an inch until...

I don't put much faith in that Mauser conversion manufacturers claims. First they claim that it's quiet, and Prebancolt tells us his sounds similar to a .22. More telling is the claim that it...

Those Marlins have 16 1/2" barrels, I almost bought one a couple of years ago. This link says a 24" barrel makes the 45ACP quiet, but that's a relative term....

.45ACP barrel length?

How long would a .45ACP barrel have to be to quiet it down?

I've found out that a 26" barrel(I have one on the way) will quiet down a 22LR. The 45ACP has almost the same bore-case capacity ratio...
