ok guys im having a thought, and would liek it to turn into a brainstorm
.22 cal super colibri out of a standard 16~ inch barrel is nearly silent. less that a daisy airgun. especially in a bolt action. these things are so handy! i am a big fan of a small bullet in just the right spot ( very accurate)
but i was thinking that little 20 gr bullet is actually a little less than small. (again i'm not talking velocity and size as much as accuracy) and would like something a little bigger to drop on target. but still pretty small most likely a small pistol round. i was thinking maybe a .32 acp in my 30-06 bolt action. it would be heavier than the .22 for sure, now would the longer barrel speed things up? or slow the bullet down is the question. i wouldn't mind velocity around 5-600 fps,
in fact that is kind of what i am going for here:
reasonably quiet report (as close to super colibri as possible)
subsonic
substantially heavier bullet than 20gr
ideas?
