Short of a suppressor, you're not going get subsonic .22lr down to pellet gun noise levels. To do that you need to use either CBs or Aguila Super Colibris.
You should be able to find a used single-shot .22 for under $100 if you want an excuse to buy a new gun, but your 10/22 should work fine cycling the rounds by hand. I have an old Winchester 121 single shot (21" barrel) that I've used with CCI CB shorts and longs, but it is not much quieter than in my Marlin 795 (18" barrel).
