Sumo vs 0db 160 .25cal

[1MOA]

Im changing my impact from .177 to 700mm .25

I currently have a sumo in .177 that is very backyard friendly and would like to keep it that way. I am currently considering the .25 sumo or ronin (kinda big/heavy) vs the 160s 0db. The 0db 160 and the sumo are very close in length and 1.250 vs 1.600

Any experience comparing these models in .25 cal impact

Thanks

I had the Sumo on my .25 Impact and now run the 0dB. It is just a tad quieter and more accurate too.

I've used both on various guns and haven't honestly experienced a difference in sound between the two. The Donny's are larger OD and the 0dB's are slimmer. I've found shorter barrel guns tend to look better with a Donny and longer barrel guns look better with 0dB. This is just a personal preference but don't think you could go wrong either way performance wise.

Stoti that looks awsome very nice setup!

It looks like alot of guys are shooting the ronin is it that much more quiet than the 0db?

I just noticed the ronin is 10.4oz 2X the weight of the 0db 5.2oz...

Do they recommend to size up the 0db as in .30 for .25cal?

I don’t have a Sumo, but I did have a DonnyFL Shogun, which is the Sumo’s big brother. I also have 4 0dB on various rifles. The Shogun was marginally quieter, but was MUCH larger, both in diameter and length, not to mention weight. The 0dBs have become my go-to silencers, including on my .30 cal Impact (although my FX Wildcat MK 3 did come with the DonnyFL FX moderator, and I quite like it.

I have a Sumo and a Ronan for my .25 Vulcan. There is no noticeable difference. Im actually thinking of getting the Evol adapter and changing the Ronan with the 1/2 in threads so I can use it on that.

Stoti is that a cerakote or paint looks great

I took off the anodizing, buffed it and hit it with a light coat of silver and clear coat. Most of the parts are raw aluminum but I couldn’t get the moderator to match, hence the epoxy paint.

Right on way to put a personal touch on it!
