Default MFC for hunting?

I've been toying with the idea of getting a muzzle flip compensator for my daystate x2, however i'm not sure that its worth buying since i only target shoot to check zero and grouping once in a while, the rest of my shooting is purely hunting. Correct me if i'm wrong, but i believe the pros and cons of MFC's are that they reduce barrel movement to an absolute minimum during the firing cycle, howver it will createmore noise from each shot as compared to the double silencer rigup i have at the mo?

So basically is it worth 80 of my hard earned pounds to mod my rifle with one? ie will it help me to take longer range hunting shots? or is it just going to scare off all my quarry??

Won't do much to reduce muzzle crack so you'll probably be better off spending half as much on a Weihrauch silencer. my X2 is whisper quiet and a damn sight more accurate than me.
