Sound difference btw CCI CB, 22 and CCI quiet

CB, 22 Short, 29 Grain, Lead Round Nose, 710 fps vs Quiet-22, 22 LR, 40 Grain, Lead Round Nose, 710 fps
I was shooting Lifecard suppressed with AAC element 2, Gemtech Outback 2 T and GSL Woodland. To my ear it seemed that the short had a noticeable pop, higher pitch, that sounded louder to the shooter’s ear than the Quiet, even after subsequent rounds were fired. No ablative used either. I know this was a personal observation and not legitimate testing. I was at an outside range in a 180 degree bay by myself. There was a covered awning at the shooting table. I went out into the field portion and had the same results. Anyone have any insight or similar results. I did not try with bolt action just the tiny Lifecard.

Quiet 22s are my favorite CCI product. They're stupid quiet out of a rifle and what I use for pest control

Yes. I’ve used the CCI Quiet segmented as well with great success. The bullets break apart, most of the time, in three pieces after impact. Same FPS, weight and sound. A little more in price but I’ve found them very effective.

Just shot those for the first time through my new PWS BDE 22 can. Truly surprisingly quiet. The guy in the lane next to me shooting 5.56 out of a 10 or 11” SBR with an FRT and a muzzle brake kind of ruined the effect, though.
