I have shot lots of CCI CBs and they are quiet. Since I discovered the Remington CeeBees thats all I buy. They cost a little more but have a bullet that is far superior to the CCI bullets. Plus the bullet is a little longer and heavier so it is stabilized by the 1/16 twist found on the typical 22 rifle. They are just a little louder than CBs.

I know somebody will say to use the Aquila rounds. They are fine from a handgun but out of a long (24") barrel you stand a real good chance of having them stick in the bore. Ask me how I know. They did work okay from a ruger 10-22 but were never that accurate. Fine for real close but they fall out of the air pretty quick. I have had some that bounced off squirrels after 20 yards or so. Too long of a barrel really slows them down.
