    On a serious note I'm quite suprised its too noisy... What calibre is your rifle? Reason i ask is I've always wondered if these silencers come in different calibres and if they don't will a .177 be more noisy ? Or have you got a .22 silencer on n a .177?
    This may all sound a bit techy but I have experimented with an EVO silencer with and without vortex tip & a long series silencer with and without a vortex tip and I couldn't tell any difference from one to the next., I ended up with some of the internals from the long one in the EVO silencer body because it was a bit different & seemed to balance the gun better!.
    When chatting to somone about the long series silencer (the chap I bought it from) he said it was really almost as good as the long series with UK Paul internals that he had. And that was on a 30ftlbs TTR! (he was chopping 4 inches off the barrel & having an mfr style shroud silencer fitted so he could shoot from a landy) So I'm wondering why its not working for you and if a different silencer is going to do anything different??
    Just a few thoughts from my findings with rammers & silencers I hope it may be of use.
    If you do try anything else as I would be interested to find out what happens

    when I say long series silencer I mean the old fin type fitted to the very early fenman's we may not be talking about the same one
