I'm thinking about a SBR 10/22 so I can keep cheap factory brick ammo subsonic. Combine a ~5" barrel with my TAC-62 suppressor, the result will be a package that is just as quiet as my 22/45 + TAC-62 setup, but able to mount optics and be more accurate with a stock.

To me, the ability to keep regular ammo subsonic combined with a suppressor is the main advantage of a SBR 10/22. Plus the OAL with the can attached is much more compact as well.

Though I would personally use an aftermarket steel receiver for durability instead of a factory aluminum receiver.
