I would go with the larger for more hush factor.

Had the same questions for a couple weeks so I took the guys on the forums advice and call Mike at TKO. Just like the guys say he answered all the questions and then some. Place the order for 6 1/2 V series. I see why he has such a great reputation.

Go for the largest diameter and longest that you can use. The more expansion room the better it will work.

I called him last week. I spent about an hour on the phone bs'n about air guns and what have you, he is a real nice guy to deal with. I know bigger is better I was just hoping to hear " the 5" works fine" but I could always use an extra 1.5"

Well I ordered the 6.5ââ,¬Â on Sunday. I hope itââ,¬â,,¢s not too big; sometimes they donââ,¬â,,¢t fit when you try to put them away. I donââ,¬â,,¢t want it to get caught in the zipper but I guess itââ,¬â,,¢s better than being to short and everybody laughing at me for having one that doesnââ,¬â,,¢t work well.

I just installed a 5'' on my 2240.  I guess I compromised some because I didn't want the extra length. It is quieter,  would a 6.5 be better?  Maybe if I had a side by side  comparison I'd think different, but I'm OK with what it does.

I also have the 5in, but mounted on a 2250b that's been power modded. I love being able to hear the pellet impact. If I miss the first shot on a squirrel, they don't run very far, and I can get a second shot off. When I first installed, I didn't tighten the screws down enough, and it came off on a hunting trip. I didn't notice because I have camo wrap going over the brake and barrel. After I shot a pellet through it, and noticed the angle on the brake (not straight, but drooping down) I rushed hone to inspect it. After shaking pellet fragments out of it, I looked inside with a flashlight, slight cosmetic damage on the inside of the mounting collar, but still works GREAT.
Mike T. makes an awesome product, one that I can whole heartedly recommend.

Has anybody ever used a SPL meter to gauge the difference in the 5 and 6.5" TKO muzzle brakes?
