New to air gunning. Just purchased a new M3 .25 700mm sniper model. What moderator would you suggest for quiet performance. Looking at the DonnyFL lineup.
Thanks

I have the 22 compact M3 and I’ve played with all the DonnyFL suppressers. To my ear, they keep getting quieter as they get bigger all the way up to the Ronin. I can’t tell a difference between the Ronin and the Emperor.

M3 25 Sniper here and my choice was between the Sumo & Ronin. I talked with a few people and was told that if I was able to hear the difference between the two it would be very little so I went with the Sumo and have been happy with it. A good tune also quiets the gun down a lot. I have no problem shooting in a barn around cattle, it doesn't spook them. I am also able to frequently take multiple shots without spooking the whole group of pigeons away.

Not fully understanding. What do you mean by "thick" and "thin" ? Second line in your description above.

Is this some different wording for "diameter" ?

I have a .30 700mm M3. I can't hear much of a difference between the Ronin or Sumo, so I run the Sumo. Ronin puts more sag on the barrel due to the weight.
Make sure any tune is 3-5% below max at the reg pressure you are running or it will be loud and waste air no matter what suppressor you use. I suspect this is the main cause of a lot of complaints about loudness.

Thanks everyone for all your help. Can't wait as my gun is arriving tomorrow. Only had to wait one week to get it.
