Ive played with alot of 22 cans, and in my experance everyone has their favorites. The Alpine is a OK can but I definatly wouldnt put it at the top of the list. Tacsol has a titanium can the same size that is rated for 5.7 that is quiter for about the same price maybe a bit higher.
I have zero complaints about the Sparrow. If you want to talk about poor sounding cans I have come to find over time that YHM stuff is at the top of the list and surefire is not far behind in the .22 department. Shooting Surefires .22 can next to a Thompson XL and a OutbackII the surefire is a paper weight. There are people who will defend their over priced surefire .22 cans all day long, I wont fight over it, I am just going by what my ears told me. I suggest people to try them side by side with other cans the noise level will speak for itself.
Meter readings only account for so much, the tone of the shot is often is very differant, more so in rifle cans than pistol or .22 in my experance. Tone of the shot is something that I cant really explain other then the "ringyness" of the sound, but it does affect what people think about how well a can works judging but customer demos.
I will try and reach Mac Bros, I keep hearing good things about their cans and if their stuff is of good quality and preformance Id be happy to carry some of it.
