I had the Vectis out today looking for chipmunks and rabbits trying to get comfortable in the flowerbeds and stonewalls around the house for winter. I didn't see any, I figured they saw me first, because I always see them when I'm not carrying a gun. I decided to just take a few shots at a reaction target that I have hanging in a tree. The shots sounded off, just like last time I shot it. I went and grabbed a little chronograph and the speed was still right at 967fps, so it was the moderator. So nothing changed with that from the last time I shot it. What did change was that I now have an Airgun Capital Hawk showing up next week to replace the Tanto. It doesn't have any screens or felt in it, so if it's quiet up front it should stay that way. It's a 2"x4" unit so it's going to look like a soup can but hopefully it will quiet it up with its increased volume. Franklink said that it really quiets down his 20fpe MAC1, and that's really close to the same power as this gun, both are unregulated and direct threaded. I'm really looking forward to trying it. I'll post a pic of the ugly little beast when I get the Hawk on it. It should look pretty ridiculous. lol
