Suppressors are legal to hunt with in VA. One can make the argument that you're trying to be more considerate of the neighbors and wildlife around you with one.  Surprisingly, they do make subsonic loads for this carrridge and I'd have to say it's about as quet as 300 BLK suppressed. This also means that the cartridge has a short range.  So yeah, I want a suppressor for a bolt gun now.  The Ruger American has the right idea. Also, last year CZ stopped making the 527 and 550. Considering I want one of those in .375 H&H... it's disappointing

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Curiosity brings up two questions, TJ.  First, are suppressors legal for hunting deer in Virginia?  Second, are there subsonic loads available in that caliber which will put down a deer?  I have a hunch that a deer would be spooked by the crack of a supersonic round even through a suppressor.
