Hello,
New to the site. Had BB pistols and rifles as long as I can remember. I have a Gamo .177 Hunter with a BSA scope. Break barrel 1000 fps. Still works great after 20 + years. Recently bought a 17 hmr to reach out and touch ground squirrels at 100 yards…beautiful rifle but just too loud for taking multiple shots. The Gamo is only good if I’m on top of the Squirrels at close range.
I just recently discovered the world of PCP and have been really considering the Gauntlet SL series. I like the design and look and prices. I understand the .30 cal is just as loud even with a moderator as .22?
I can’t find any good reviews on the .25 and if it could take a ground squirrel at 100 yards and what would the sound be like with a moderator or even without a moderator?
I like the way I see the Gauntlet .30 hits and I’ve seen enough to think I could want to buy one but I’m afraid it’s going to be just as loud as my .17hmr?
Looking for all of your experiences and wisdom on this subject!
Thank you!
Brian
