Probably see a new Democratic Underground topic: Ruger introduces "Over the counter, Easily Concealable Silenced Sniper Rifle you can buy over the Internet."
113 db? That's about like a car horn at arm's length. I imagined a suppressed .22 would be considerably quieter than that, though I've yet to witness someone firing one.

I suspect it's measured at the muzzle. Would be much less on the backend and if your ear was at the muzzle you'd have bigger problems than ringing ears...just a guess though.
