I have no experience with that particular brand of air rifle but in my experience air rifles are louder than a locked breach suppressed .22 with subsonic ammo.


I actually went and ordered a Benjamin Armada (Scary black-rifle looking version of a Marauder) on an impulse. Buy the time I track down enough quiet ammo to hold me over for the next year, at $10/50, I can basically pay for the gun and I have been wanting a Marauder for several years. Plus the gun comes with a moderated or shrouded barrel, it has a silencer built in. Now I just need to figure out what scope to put on it and do some cleaning in the garage.

Cool video. The bolt action would suck though. Gives me a good idea for my Ruger Charger though. Thanks for posting the video.
