.410 subsonics

[PLEDGEY 496]

Has anyone on here used any 2'' 9 gram .410 cartridges with a shrouded 410?. If so, how quiet are they?. Being subsonic, and being shot from a 410 with a moderator, are they as quiet as a 22lr sub sonic round shot through a moderator?.

I use Eley Fourtens which are 2" 9 grams through a .410 with a 9" moderator. They make a noise like a champagne cork popping. Nowhere near as quiet as a sub through a .22, but still not too loud.

I tried some subsonic on my 20 gauge last week too test and all I got was a bit of a pop and whistle hell of difference certainly not silent but I bet the sound didn't carry far at all

Got hold of some 3'' subs today, put them through a Baikal with a full Mod. Not as quiet as a 22lr, but sure as hell quieter than an SX3. Got some high velocity 21/2'' cartridges in .410 as well, got a crack to them, but still not extremely load.

Eley fourlongs are the quietest by far in my modded fourten. You can just hear the rush of the shot pushing through the air.
