STO Brevitas II mini review

Ordered a Brevitas 2 from STO Monday and received it today. It basically looks like a minature Buckrail mod its only like 2 3/4 in long and very light. They only have them in .30 cal now but I installed it on my Crown MK2 380mm .22 which has a DFL Tanto on it now.. the report from the Brevitas is a lot sharper and a bit louder then the Tanto, while not offensively loud by no means the Tanto seems quieter and has a more pleasant report.
Next I installed it on my .22 Dreamline Classic w/Tanto currently installed, same deal a sharper quicker/louder sound where the Tanto makes a sort of woosh sound if that makes sense.
Next my 66ftlb .30 Crown MK1, which has a Buckrail mod on it, way loud on the .30, .22 long rifle loud. The Buckrail while not quiet by any means has a lot more subdued sound.
Just for the heck of it I took my BSA R10 SE .22 mod off and put the Bravitas 2 on and it sounded like a hi powered rifle going off :oops:
My opinion is that on the .. Crown MK2 .22 its quiet enough to squirrel hunt with and not alert the whole woods plus it makes the gun about 3 inches shorter. Would probably be ok on the Dreamline also.
It definitely is not for anything above 32-35 ftlb and is for shrouded guns only, it did absolutely nothing on my R10.
Would I give 52.00 for another one shipped, probably not because I'm guessing Buckrail or someone could make one close to the same thing cheaper since it seems to be 3D printed. Since I did all this all totally by ear take it for what its worth.

See what STO has to say about the Brevitas:

"This design was intended to function on the end of an already shrouded gun and to blend in to the shroud profile for a unmoderated look and feel. Without effective reflex volume, this design simply lacks the internal volume to produce optimal results. In terms of report, this design is obviously not whisper quiet, and was never meant to be."
