I've been very impressed with silencers on .22s. Even on many of the centerfires, they do enough that hearing protection is not necessary.

I shoot my suppressed guns and my MAC-10 in my back yard all the time. I live in the country so I can do that.
If you live far enough in the country, you don't even need the silencers! That's what I do.
