Default Re: Hearing and firing guns

Firing fewer than 20 shots on a farm in Kansas when I was 19 or so with no hearing protection using a .22-250, my ear (right ear) was ringing for a week.

The movie HEAT has pretty realistic gun sounds, but no one actually does guns as loud as they really are, because "This is THX. The audience is now deaf."
