super colibri, short, long, and hollow point|||You won't get a precise answer, since it depends mostly on the specific gun you are shooting out of, and since not many people spend the time to measure how loud a .22 is. The shape of the bullet will not make any significant difference. I would estimate that you are looking at about 110-125 dB for a 6" .22 revolver.|||Hi
They all generate the same sound pressure level, zero.
If you don't understand my answer, go and learn what you are asking.
If you don't understand the instruction above, think about it, maybe you will learn.
On a practical point, revolvers in 22 do not take cartridges that are specific, the same can be used in rifles and pistols. The report of a gun is dependent on the length of the barrel, in especial in 22s as the powder will completely combust in the barrel of rifle and then the pressure will be dropping.|||I am going to assume that you want to know if they will hurt your hearing. My answer is YES!
Don't even THINK about shooting any of these without hearing protection. Decibel measurement are tricky. If you look at the pressure wave on a time scale, gunshots have a very sharp rise which will fool many instruments because the peak lasts for a very short time. The instruments are designed for continuous noise and do not necessarily register the tallest peak. However, your ears WILL suffer damage during those peaks.
I have heard many old shooters say, "It used to bother me, but I'm used to it now." That is because their hearing is damaged and the pain is gone.
I shoot longs and shorts in a bolt action rifle with hearing protection because I don't want to miss out on the gentle voices of my grandchildren as they play.|||Colibri are very quiet, 500 ft per second, I've shot squirrels with the next door neighbor out swimming in their pool and they never heard them, less noise than a screen door closing.
No gun powder just a overdosed primer load....I was not aware they made them in a LR however, or shorts for that matter, all I have ever purchased is longs...of which I've purchased 8 bricks 8000 rounds....they perform well in a urban area, a tad dirty but not corrisive.
I shoot mine out of a Armsco auto loader Rifle, have have to hand feed each round as there is not enough pressure to cycle the bolt. Very Very accurate to 75 feet, I have shot spent Colibri casings at that range witha 9x Weaver scope mounted to the rifle.|||I can tell you that the long rifles i shoot from an old stevens bolt action rifle wont activate my electronic ear muffs that dampen sound at 80 decibels.|||With reference to what ?
A decibel is a mathematical ratio. Without a reference it is meaningless.
ian M|||that depends on to many things to give you an answer
