From what little I have seen of suppresors in action, it is comparable to a subsonic .22 with a suppresor. I imagine it would depend heavily on the quality and condition of the can though. I have used the Calibri before and it is really fun to play with (I just ordered a case of the stuff), but it isn't all that powerful, nor is it all that accurate. for just having fun, it is way cheaper than a tax stamp.

A few years back we had a guy at the range with a 77/22 w/ integral surpressor. He let me fire a couple of rounds out of it, and all you could hear was the firing pin. There was a crack with regular ammo though.

It's quiet but, at 20 grains, 500 FPS and, 11 Ft-Lb of energy it doesn't even meet most air rifle performance.
