Yea it will be a little quieter than full power loads but not much

We have to do the best we can with the silly rules we've got .
Although they are still loud , there is quite a difference in perceived sound from a distance , I'm no expert but got my mate to shoot my old 44/40 about 300m away . We used two different loads ,full power and a reduced Trailboss load .The difference was quite noticeable , You still knew someone was shooting obviously ,but the Trailboss load seemed much further away .
Non shooters , even in the country can be funny and although they understand getting rid of pest pigs they don't like the idea of a " Big Gun " going off so loud it's seems "someone must be shooting in my backyard ".
Those are honestly the words that were used by one neighbour that I talked to .
He was OK and not really grumpy but he joked that my 308 stirred up his Chooks , his Dogs , his Wife , his Kids and his Heart Rate
I can understand that , and truth be known it is a very good reason and excuse to buy another rifle and play around developing some ammo for it.
