they are very effective on a .22 with subsonic ammo, all you hear is a slight hiss and the pin striking the casing.

But this thread is from 2006, id say its long sold

...and then you'll hear the bullet hit the target!

It will be a 1/2" UNF thread, thats 20 TPI.

I've the a Parker Hale mod and with sub somic ammo all I can hear is the spring going off, the pin striking case and the bullet striking the target. I've 1/2 inch unc thread on my rifle

Loudest part is usually the bullet striking the target, only other thing you can here is the firing pin - using subsonics. Using standard, high, or hyper velocity is another thing.
