Have to say that unless you’re using subsonic ammo there’s always going to be supersonic ‘crack’ anyway.

Well, went out this arvo after some goats in regen bush.Can't say I niticed any difference in sound level between 1'st shot and next five, i don't believe any of the 5 now diceased goats did either. On the drive home I got to thinking how 4 deer in vineyard on thursday night didn't seem to notice either. So I'll just put this first round pop thing down to something target shooters are noticing, got more important things to worry about like where the next animal is and trying to stay dry.

Probaly our ears are still recovering from the first shot too much to notice the follow ups....We are paying more attention to what is out in front of the barrel than what comes out of it....(or we should be?)
