    CCI "Supressor" rounds out of your 22 rifle. Very quiet and very effective. The neighbors won't even know.

    I have had great accuracy luck with the Saeco 175 grain bullet. I can't recall the number. From 30-30 to .308 to 30-06 it has shot very well.
    Good Luck,

    If a .454 will seat in the case and chamber in your firearm you are good to go. Use the fattest bullet which will chamber.
