I have shot shorts for years, but have recently swithed to Remington and CCI long rifle subsonics. I think they are quieter than high speed shorts and much more accurate. Easier to shoot in feet if you want to see a fight or between the eyes if you don't. I also like the CCI standard velocity long rifle. About the same noise level as the subsonics, also very accurate.

Just bought a box of Remington C Bee's. Long rifle, hollow point, Low Noise. Sound just like the CCI CB's but hollow point. 12.99 a hundred. With the way people are now a days, I am planning on using them this season.

I do like the cb shorts if the coon is low, but when they're way up there I'd rather take my chances with one loud shot than 10 quieter ones.

I use CCi long rifle segmented quiets. 40 grain at 710 fps. They drop out the big Illinois coons out with 1 shot. My son cant hear the gun fire over the dog barking.

I too blundered across this ammo last coon season and can say with confidence as I have used them all This is the very best round for knock out power and low noise, needed when starting puppies. I liked them so well I went to my local ammo supplier and ordered a brick of them and just got them this week.

These segmented quiet 22's are much stronger than a CB short, a little stronger than the 22 CB long, and even stronger than the CB quiet, with just about the same noise level as the CB Quiet.

I love this round and plan to use it when ever I have a need to harvest a coon. And man they are much better for not scaring a puppy, when introducing it to it's first couple of experiences around a tree.

The aguillas are pretty quiet and will knock ‘em out pretty easy!! CCI quiets just didn’t seem to have the knock down power. Aguillas pretty cheap to..

Segmented is the way to go. The round nose have no knock out power. Seen squirrels run into a hole a tree away after a head shot. The hollow points are better but the segmented breaks into 3 peices and its basically shrapnel from there. And it might sound a little loud at the tree, its actually quiet if ur 100 yards away. And they seem to be very accurate out of all the 22s we use.

And a good thing about using a 270 you don't have to carry the coon to far heck it blows them half way back to the truck,and when you get home you don"t have 2 skin them . Should try it sometime, around here a 22 won't reach the top of the tree. Some really really tall tree's around here. Shot what i thought was a coon one night a when it hit the ground it was a 400 lb bear .

Kill shots depend on shot placement more than the shell being shot. I have killed big boar coons with 1 shot using cb longs hitting them between thed eyes. I have also shot coons several times with hollow point long rifle shells hitting them in the body. Shot placement is the key. Dave
