    I'm on a block in Dunedin too mate. I'm currently using cci 40gr subs in a 12" barrel with a DPT .22 magnum suppressor. The bullet hitting the bunny is louder than the shot. Doesn't seem to bother the chooks but my ewes lift their heads at the shot. No one inside can hear either shot or hit. Please note, the extra baffles don't make that much difference. I've test with and without the extra two.
    I have about 100 rounds left of this stuff, and when this runs out I'm going to switch to either the cci 45gr or the Quiet.

    As above I don't think your issue will be barrel length but something is up with the ammo. As above try wrapping a few layers of tape around the suppressor. But of course that will not help if ammo going supersonic.
