I have a couple of Huma Mod30 moderators and I find them very effective. I am wondering how it would compare to a Huggett Snipe or 0db 160S. Anyone with experience with all of these able to provide any input or opinions. Thanks.
Looking for .22 mod input: Huggett Snipe Standard vs. 0db 160S vs. Huma Mod30 3/0

I had a mod 40 and a snipe. I found the snipe had a better sound. Not necessarily quieter, but more appealing to my ears if that makes sense.

This topic is kind of subjective as we all have different ears and rifle setups. I like my Huggett a tiny bit more than my Sumo. Sounds a little better to me in both level and tone. I dont have a 0db or Huma to compare to unfortunately.

Going to try adding felt coins to the inside of my huma and shoot holes through it to seal up the over sized holes for better air stripping.

The Hugett Snipe and shroud on my Daystate .22 is the quietest of all my rifles, including two .177's

Does huma use a standard size insert for all their mods? Is there no caliber difference except the end cap?

That sounds like a really bad idea. The holes will not be perfect and little pieces of fuzz will likely impact your POI constantly. Worst case you blow out the mod.
Thanks for the replies. I have a Huggett Atom and a Magna and they are really good, so maybe I'll try a Snipe.

The holes are sized the same as the end cap on the huma. Some have said they are rather oversized to avoid clipping issues. UK forum guys have been shooting through felt coins between hair curlers installed in their china solvent traps. Just shoot through one at a time with a wadcutter pellet. I bet just a couple at the end baffles would do wonders since real suppressors utilize bullet wipes that are nothing more than a rubber washer that gets the first hole made by the bullet.

Huggett Snipe works well with most airguns, but with the vent screen part of the blast chamber, they don't work as well with high powered airguns with a powerful muzzle blast.
Odb has the same venting, and I'd expect the same shortcoming.

Here's a "20 silencer test" by mrbulk on GTA. Based on his results, I put a Huma 30 on my .22 HP SS Plus. The muzzle blast went from, similar to my Marlin 39a, down to sharp puff that I can tolerate w/o earplugs in the garage. Granted, the the Huma 30 in his tests belonged to another member who modified its baffles, but I'm happy with my stock unit.

I like the mod30. The coloration of pieces doesn't match perfect but it's not too bad, and huma customer service is great. I added one chamber, and use avalanche for first insert or "blast baffle"... made a big difference
Adds a bit of volume i guess.I may mix and match more later to expirement. Over all seems nice
