The .35 Yokozuna moderator for my .30 cal Red Panda is too loud. Need recommendations for a much quieter moderator. I prefer to stick with Donny FL if possible.

The .35 Yokozuna moderator for my .30 cal Red Panda is too loud. Need recommendations
- Thread starter rodjava
- Start date
I ended up ordering another Donny FL Ronin moderator as I liked the noise decibel that was on my Texan .257. This Ronin also had the M18x1 threads which works on the RP. I will let the membership know how much, if any, quieter it is compared to the Yokuzuma

I can't attest to the Ronin on the red panda, but it does a good job on the Texan .457 I have. It also has an extension available that I think is 6" long by the same diameter as the Ronin to help with the noise. The downside is 12" of extra length

I dunno, for my higher power .30 I found the STO Sarrissa and the Huma Air MOD50 to be the most effective. I've only used the Sumo from DonnyFL so not apples to oranges with your setup.

I have the older STO MUS on my .30 crown and it is one of my favorites for weight ( or lack there of it, haha ) and size . It does an excellent job ( very effective ) .
It is crazy light weight .

For any 'Red Panda .30 shooters who want to know what the quietest Donny FL moderator works the best is.....................
The winner is the DL Emperor ! The DB level is about 1/3 of the Yokozuma. It's not mouse fart quiet, but is a very big improvement!
I was very disappointed how the Yokozuma sounded which was very loud. I shot next to some 22 rim fire guys and we both sounded the same. Loud as hell.
Thanks to Sandy at AIRGUNDIRECT.COM, I was able to exchange the Yokozuma for the Emperor with no hassle. I just needed to pay the difference in price.
I think the size of the Emperor compliments the looks of the RD since it looks similar to the 2 air tanks in the rear.

I can attest to the length increase on the .457 Texan as I also have an extenson with the Emporer. This rifle is SUPER long. Almost reach out and just poke the target insted of shooting it.I can't attest to the Ronin on the red panda, but it does a good job on the Texan .457 I have.

LOL not a bullpup for sure! Even with the airforce lss setup it's still like pointing a javelin
I have gotten used to shooting it from my trigger stick, but no go for real brushy Dence cover.Upvote 0
Emperor is longer than the yokozuna right? What about adding more baffles to yokozuna? Disappointed in the yokozuna. Expected to be more quiet. It is cool for the quick disconnect feature.
