Just about everyone who owns a firearm either has a rimfire of some sort or grew up plinking with one. The .22lr is perhaps the most popular caliber of all time, surpassing many of the big-game calibers. Suppressing a rimfire, whether it’s your .22lr, .22Mag, .17HMR, or even the .17 WSM, makes them quieter and safer for your hearing. If you’re out chasing squirrels on a cool autumn day, clearing varmints out of the back 40, or teaching a new shooter the proper way to pull the trigger, a suppressed rimfire is an amazing and affordable tool that you’ll enjoy for many years.
