Might be a dumb question..... but does that moderated being even with the tank cause any issues as far as lets say "flyers"?

Not at all.
If there were any issues it would be the first few thousandths of an inch where the pellet leaves the barrel at the crown. Now that being said any moderator can cause issues when the pellet goes through a baffle. I’ve not seen it in an air rifle, typically the holes are large enough not to interfere with a pellet. If you ever get a pellet strike I’d sure be investigating. I used a .250 hole through mine so if I switch it to .22 cal I’ll have to pay attention. But so far it is amazingly accurate at 20-50 yrds. I’ve been working with it around 100yds over the weekend and results not to good. But I’ve not tried anything but jsb 10.34 gr yet. My son has basically same set up as mine but he’s running 10.34 jsb at 870 fps. His definitely performs better at 100yds.
