Also, consider this an exit wound tends to be bigger thus it allows more leakage which can also be called "EVIDENCE."
And also, the report of a .22 is less than other calibers so the chances of it going unnoticed are greater.
However,
If you want an assiination tool, I would think a low power subsonic tracer round. subsonic so the report isn't that great nor the sonic crack, a silencer to further silence it. Because if you use supersonic rounds with a silencer you still have that "crack" from the round which makes a silencer useless. And as I said a reduced caliber round, .32 or .380 and a tracer. Thus you don't have a pool of blood anywhere to make people wonder where did that pool of blood come from? And where is our sentry? Hmmm, no sentry, and blood, I think I'll sound the alarm!
