Hatsan .30

How loud is the new Hatsan .30 Carnivore?  A video shows it in action and it seems really quiet.  I was wondering what the real world experience was, and also, does it really get 860 fps with a 44 gr. pellet?  Thanks.

I just posted some information, but yes, its pretty quite for what it is.  Without measuring, and difficult for complete comparison as beyond the noise level there is the type of noise but I compare it to my magnum springers, with a shorter duration cycle in the noise production.  The "ping" or vibration is much less. 

On my first fill to 2900psi, I reached 841.7fos on shot 12, which I estimate at approx 2200psi.  On my second string, I started at 2465psi at reached 842.6 on shot 3 estimated @ 2300psi.  It reached just over 70fpe max, but we will see after we have some break in period where things settle.
