Generally, I perceive the Yoko a tiny bit quieter. That said, I have one Yoko and 7 Falx, which may tell you something… the Falx is way lighter than the Yoko and does and provides 97% (perceived) of the performance of the yoko in terms of quieting things down. I also like that you can get it with different cores/flows for different guns. Combined with the fact that I can get almost 2 Falx for 1 Yoko make it the clear winner in my book…
I have 6 Reximex Silent Force long moderator. $25 @ Sharg.pl. Tested against a Falx (moderate flow) and a DFL Sumo on 3 .22 and 1 .25 and it was quieter. Only 1" in diameter so no giant sausage on the end of your rifle like the Sumo. I have 2 Falx and it is an excellent moderator. But for $25 the Silent Force just cannot be beat
Have you tried to remove different sections of the Yokozuna? Making it shorter will change the harmonics.
well there's actually a very easy way to check for clipping..if it is high power air gun you will have at least marks on the finish inside the moderator of not pieces missing.. even a good Donny FL shogun..
Mark, as a builder of these things for years, I can tell you that misalignment will cause loss of accuracy and clipping without necessarily leaving marks in the moderator. In previous posts I have offered to make alignment test rods for others. To my knowledge, nobody offers these for sale anywhere. As I stated before, everytime you remove and reinstall a moderator its alignment to the barrel should be checked. It is cheap insurance and it only takes seconds.
I was not aware of your business.. because the rod either needs to be a precision metal or carbon fiber.. I know that they use carbon fiber rods to align the barrel with the magazine on the Huben GK1..
