Besides a 300 Bo what’s the most enjoyable gun to shoot suppressed?

So hard to beat a 22LR. Cheap, accurate and as quiet as you can get.
a properly tuned cmmg/borebuddy 4.5in/7in 22lr with a super safety and a drum?
When I bought my first suppressors, I made the mistake of not getting a 22lr one. After I corrected that mistake I use it 10X more than any of the others. Granted I have a 200yd range in my backyard which is perfect for 22lr and not very challenging for anything else.
Ruger Mk IV suppressed with the full top-end treatment and a MRDS
Ruger 10/22 with integrally-suppressed barrel
SilencerCo Maxim9 with 150gr subs in full size configuration (My kids love it.)
MP5K with Tri-Lug, short can, MRDS, B&T stock
MP5SD
Mk.12 or 15.1” Recce with AEM can
6.5 Grendel
338 Spectre (338 ARC will feel the same)
TBAC FLY9 suppressor works on 9mm and 338 small case chambering BTW.
Most everything is more fun shooting suppressed, unless it’s full-auto blowback (super gassy).

Love my 9mm, and especially my .45s suppressed; naturally subsonic, and just a hoot ringing plates at 25 yards and in.
That said, the one that makes me giggle every time, and that I can shoot in my backyard any time day or night without disturbing the neighbors is a suppressed .22LR bolt gun. Literally quieter than a nail gun when shooting those CCI quiet rounds:
…especially in its current incarnation. Nothing like putting a $300 trigger and a $1300 scope onto a $400 rifle!
Shoots real nice inside 50 yards though, and a lot of fun for new shooters:

.22Lr is hard to beat for cheapness. Love my 3” “Assassins” inspired MkIV
Just finished a F4 on a JK CX105 “solvent trap” kit they used to sale, it lives on my Gen 4 G19C and digs 165gr hand loads.
Most fun caliber personally is 5.45x39, using a F4 10” baffle can on it now but thinking about yarding the barrel off for a new 12.7” or slightly long for an AEM-5 set up.
