I feel the same way you do about getting a good setup…once you have it don’t mess with it. I’m ordering the Condor and will get an 18″ barrel at the same time. I’ll post some strings with the 18″ barrel as soon as everything comes in.

I’ve heard the same…the .20 cal projectile is longer therefore more friction slower fps. The .177 should will not have this problem.

I’m in the country but my wife and friends said it cut way down on the report. If you wanted to quiet it down more you could always experiment with the washer spring scotchbrite etc stuff.
