This video reviews the Winchester Model 72A tube-fed bolt-action rifle chambered in .22LR. The presenter details refinishing the rifle and then conducts a test of CCI Short and CCI Quiet ammunition using a Garmin Xero C1 Pro chronograph and a decibel reader to measure velocity and sound levels. The results indicate that the shorts are slightly quieter and slower than the longs.
This guide details a DIY sound suppression test using a Charter Arms Off Duty revolver in .38 Special. The experiment demonstrates how effectively enclosing a firearm within a pillow and sealing it with duct tape can drastically reduce noise levels to a potentially hearing-safe range (71 dB) compared to unsuppressed firing (152 dB). The speaker, demonstrating high authority, explains the mechanics behind firearm noise, particularly the role of the cylinder gap, and contrasts this method with less effective attempts like wrapping a towel.
This video demonstrates a suppressed Ruger 10/22 .22LR test comparing standard velocity and subsonic ammunition using a decibel meter. The presenter highlights the significant noise reduction achieved with subsonic rounds, noting the need for manual cycling due to insufficient gas pressure for reliable ejection with CCI Quiets. The test provides practical insights into suppressed .22LR performance and ammunition selection for quiet shooting.
This guide details the installation and testing of the SureFire SOCOM 556 RC2 suppressor on an AR Pistol build, as demonstrated by firearms enthusiast Esai Givens. It covers the unboxing, mounting process onto a compatible muzzle device, and subsequent sound testing using a decibel meter at both indoor and outdoor ranges. The process highlights the importance of proper alignment and the significant noise reduction achieved with a quality suppressor.
This video features a test and review of the Resilient Suppressors Jessie's Girl 22LR silencer. The reviewer heads to the range to evaluate the suppressor's performance using a mil-spec decibel meter. The video also includes promotional links for Nine Line Apparel and other channels associated with the reviewer.
This video provides an expert-level comparison of firearm noise levels, featuring a $350 CVA Scout in .300 Blackout as the quietest option tested. The host, demonstrating high authority with objective decibel measurements, highlights the significant noise reduction achieved with subsonic ammunition and a suppressor, even surpassing a pellet gun. The review also covers other popular firearms like the Mossberg Patriot and AR-15, offering practical insights into firearm acoustics and suppression effectiveness.
This video explores the distinct sound of bullet impacts by attempting to isolate them from the gunshot noise. Using a shotgun microphone pointed at targets and a decibel meter, the creator tests .22 Long Rifle, 9mm Luger, and 7.62x39mm rounds impacting an industrial door and a cinder block wall. The experiment highlights the challenges of capturing impact sounds and demonstrates the significant damage caused by different calibers.
This review by Buckeye Ballistics provides a data-driven comparison of CCI Quiet-22 .22 LR ammunition against other .22 LR rounds and even a high-powered air rifle using a decibel meter. The expert demonstrates a methodical approach to testing, highlighting the significant noise reduction offered by the CCI Quiet-22 rounds, making them notably quieter than standard high-velocity options.
This video explores the decibel levels of various firearms, from a .22LR to a .50 BMG, using a decibel reader. The experiment demonstrates that larger calibers generally produce higher decibel readings, although some variations occurred. The video highlights the importance of understanding firearm sound levels for safety and awareness.
This video tests the effectiveness of pillows in silencing gunshots, a common trope in movies. The creator aims to see if pillows can genuinely reduce gunshot noise. They acknowledge that the decibel app used for measurement is not professional-grade and is only intended to indicate sound reduction, as accurate equipment is expensive.
