Can not quiet enough on 22lR - alternatives? (self.general)

So, I ended up making a can (form1) and did a few test cycles today with cci suppressor rated ammo (950fps I think?). Anyway, definitely quieter with the can on vs not but... I dunno,e expected way more. 5.5" barrel into 7" can (35mm OD). You could shoot this all day of course with no ears on, but it's just not doing it for me.

What is currently the quietest can sailing currently? I original was going to try something from the FTN line but ended up going down this rabbit hole of making my own LOL. I mean, it did work so I'm not going to be super hard on myself...just didn't work well enough for what I'm looking for.

No experience with .22lr cans, but for my 9mm, the quietest reading I've gotten is with the hubtn.4, he has a .22lr version, but again I have not tested it, might be worth to try it out though
