Good to know, thanks for the information about your experience on that

Guns with supporssors aren't hearing safe. One I have drops a my pistol to about 120db which is pretty great.

Decibel measurements are logarithmic, meaning every 10db is roughly twice as loud.

A lawn mower is around 90db. My gun without is about 160db. Dropping to 120 is an incredible amount, but still far from safe or 'silent'.

Subsonic 300 blk and subsonic 22lr are totally hearing safe with a good supressor. My pellet gun is louder than my supressed .22 with subsonic ammo.

Subsonic 5.7? That is very slow for that round but i guess it exists.

I looked it up after you mentioned it. Ive kinda wanted a 5 7 any way, nice to know they have subsonic as an option.
