In the early days of deer and forester culling they used to hear the crack but not know where it was coming from, whilst they still scattered it was never as far and seldom directly away from you. 243 Parker hale, apart from the crack from going supersonic, made it sound like a.

I miss moderators from a practical point of view(having used them extensively) and it irks me no end when people who don't know what they are talking about spout rubbish. A silencer and subsonics was essential for spotlighting rabbits and wallaby in the old days. 22 without one be it subs or lasers, it was undetectable when using subsonics and when shooting winchester lasers for rabbits and wallaby at range the sonic boom didn't make them scatter as bad.The. ![]() In the old days a moderator made a centerfire more than bearable and earmuffs unneccesary(I have VERY good hearing still). The ones they make these days would surely be lighter and more efficient than 30 odd years ago. As far as weight in a centerfire silencer goes, in the old speak it was a slight tad over a pound and hardly noticeable especially for a young bloke.

I just think on a centerfire rifle they are a too big and heavy to be practical. 308 would be the equivalent if 40 hrs in a noisy workplace, easily enough to damage your hearing.Ĭhronos wrote:I disagree, I think most shooters want one because they think they're cool. The pain threshold for noise is around 140db so the resulting single shot from a silenced 20". 308 will produce noise around 155db (a 20" barrel could be as much as 165db), and a large suppressor will reduce this by around 25db. The sound effects seen in movies are largely responsible for this. Unless we're talking about sub sonic ammo. I just think on a centerfire rifle they are a too big and heavy to be practical.Īs far as not having to wear earmuffs that's not accurate as there is simply not enough reduction in pressure to prevent hearing damage and earmuffs are still required. I disagree, I think most shooters want one because they think they're cool. I suspect that's the same motivation for most people. It would just be nice to not have to wear ear muffs for comfort and also to be employing an additional safety method of protecting my hearing.
