i am curious which of these 2 guns would be the quitest for hunting i have herd that on the stoeger with the spring you hear the action and spring more and then i herd that the nitro trail with gas piston is very quiet also
That's what I think too. Anyways, don't NPSS' average around 750 with CPHP's? Basically the same as the Stoeger.

Basically the same as the Stoeger.I just ran the Stoeger over the chrony last night. It was pushing the cpd 14.3 at 660fps. At first I thought it should be shooting much faster, so I did a lube tune and replaced the spring w/ a factory x20 spring. Same results. I am very dissapionted with Stoeger for giving such false claims on power, but the rifle is very accurate. I calmed down after taking a squirrel at 20yds. I will never buy another Stoeger. The almost 300fps real world fps difference is enough to turn me off to a brand. I expect about a 150fps shortfall, but 300??? The advertised FPS is 800. You should have known that they hype up their numbers to increase sales. Please search " stoeger x20 s honest real world review" and leave me a comment what you think.
