Re: .22 LR subsonic ammo from Browning semi-auto rifle
Well, it's illegal.
I shoot subsonic ammo at ABRA meets, Lapua Center X, and it is indeed much quieter. I doubt it is quieter than a pellet gun, though.
Here on the old ranch, where homes are very far apart, I doubt anyone off rhe property would hear anything. Depending on the neighborhood spread, that might be a problem. You still have the problem of where the bullets end up, assuming that your pal isn't a perfect shot and that each bird will not be good enough to stand in front of a berm, like a firing squad set up. If he misses and the bullet keeps on going to end up taking out somebody's grandkid, it will be a huge problem, a great deal worse than pest birds.
