shottyscotty Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 you can get a hushpower 9 inch moderator for £55 but not sure how much it would cost to get fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigGun1 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 I have one fitte to a Webley&Scott B/A .410. The rifle end of the moderator un-screws (as does the other end for cleaning) and you have to take it to a gun smith / engineer and have the inside turned to match your barrel. Once it's a good snug fit (Ideal on my tapered barrel) apply some thread lock or similar and GENTLY tap it home with a wooden or rubber mallet. Mine has been on for almost 2 years and never come loose. As for efficiency I'm at a dissadvantage, as far as I'm aware all subsonic cart's are 3" and I'm chambered for 2 1/2", however I reload my own cases to keep it subsonic. In use a standard cartridge is quieter but not by a huge margin. Subsonic home loads are superb! Quieter than my Webley&Scott raider PCP without a mod and a smidgen louder than it with a mod. Groups seem to be tighter with a mod however it took me an age to get used to shooting it! Hang up some wall paper from a tree and shoot it loads to get used to aim/impact. On the whole I would reccomend them, it allows me to use it in places I would not normally dream of with a shot gun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
