Double Naught Spy Wrote:Just a word of warning, rifle suppressors help slow hearing loss, but do not stop hearing loss on most centerfire supersonic ammo. They make shooting much more tolerable and the damage is less, but there is still apt to be damage. From what I have seen, most suppressors will get the report down to about 135 db, which is well above the point at which damage may start to occur (120 db). https://www.cdc.gov/nceh/hearing_loss/wh...%20hearing.

Good point. The only time I shoot without ear protection (even with a suppressor) is when shooting 300BO subsonics. The mechanical noise of the action is louder than the shot. I just traded for a Rem 700 bolt action in 300BO. Can't wait to see how quiet it is.
