[QUOTE="Wiley, post: 5843900, member: 15835"] The loud crack that you speak of is called the 'ballistic crack' and is the sound of the bullet breaking the sound barrier. Subsonic rounds do not make the crack sound. A suppressor will take all the muzzle blast out of the shot whether it be full power ammo or subsonic. My .308 with full power ammo sounds like a normal .22 Magnum due to having no muzzle blast but the supersonic bullet breaking the sound barrier gives the ballistic crack. [/QUOTE]
