What's the best .22 can for me?

So I'm considering taking the plunge. I have a Ruger Mark III and a 10/22 that I'd get threaded barrels for and a can to use for both. What are your recommendations?

Mark

If you want to have a suppressor that you can care for no matter what I believe that the SWR Spectre is the very best. http://www.swrmfg.com/ProductDetails.asp?ID=22 In recent tests it was one of the quietest, it can be disassembled by the owner to clean the baffles -- in my view very important in a .22lr can as they will fill with lead over time. It is built to last a lifetime.

I have many other .22lr silencers. If I would have started with the Spectre, I likely would not have collected so many.

That is a VERY broad question.

You can get integral or a screw-on muzzle can.
You can get sealed, or a can you can disassemble.
You can get aluminum or stainless steel.
Some .22 suppressors cost over twice as much as others.

Narrow down what you are thinking about and we can go from there.

I am considering the SWR Spectre myself.
I have several others also.
