Huggett Vs Stock - Any Noise Difference

[Fenian]

Hi guys,

So there was suggestions that the Huggett on the FX Wildcat MK2 .25 is causing zeroing issues on the scope. Namely, every time you take the rifle out and put on the Huggett the rifle grouping is off, possibly touching the barrel just enough to move the grouping.

Anyways, the suggestion was to compare to the stock. So tonight, in an indoor range with nobody else around I compared the Huggett versus the Stock, and honestly I don’t hear a difference at all. The only noise is the pellet hitting the target. When the Huggett is attached it will change the precision a bit, you’d have to rezero as it’ll be off just a bit compared to stock. 

Anyways, with this thing of the Huggett being removed, and attached and every time causing the shots to be off, I am thinking of just using the Stock, and leaving it on.

Has anyone else noticed no difference, in sound, using the stock versus Huggett moderator?

Maybe it’s something you hear or notice from a distance but I couldn’t tell any difference in terms of noise using a stock versus a Huggett

Obviously things vary from gun to gun, however I did test a number of different commercial moderators including the Hugget. They very much do make a significant and measurable difference in sound. You can see the results here:

Of course if you don't like the POI shift (which is normal when installing a mod BTW) and you don't mind the sound as it comes from the factory, just leave it off.

I've had a 22 Wildcat for pushing 3 years Hugget makes him (Thor) whisper quiet! Accurate to 1/2" @ 75. Never noticed POI shift with or without. I've never had clipping. I always go stealth. I've read everything i can about Don't FL, Never tried them. I have a hard time switching!
