I was an idiot one time at the range - brought my neighbour who hadn't shot before, set everything up, nobody else is there. So I'm thinking about my mental checklist, have eyes on, etc, good to go I thought.
But I was missing ear protection (and my rifle has a muzzle brake so it sounds even louder to the shooter). Well, I send one down range...the two of us were in a little pain for the next few minutes from the sound. Without hearing protection - that thing is loud! Not even a big gun, just a .308.

I watch movies and see people shooting in small rooms while talking to each other and just think how effing deaf they would be after a few mags full of full auto rifle fire.
Last Friday at the range with a friend shooting .308 suppressed and the bullet hitting the back stop was louder than the bullet leaving the muzzle. LoL
