" pow" from a high powered rifle? I just like that " crack" one makes. I've shot a couple of 270 that " rocked the boat" so to say. I'm itching for an old school wood stock 30-06 to up my game.

Out in the field I never had a problem with a unsurpressed rifle. I hear the shot, but it's not loud by any means, out in the field. I like hearing the shot, but I don't like when my ears ring more than usual. I have never had my ears ring, after shooting out in the field. I don't like any gun, any time with a muzzle break.
You are kidding yourself if you don’t think you are damaging your hearing shooting a high powered (especially magnum) rifle with no hearing protection.

I hate the ringing afterwards, when I forget to put ear gear on

Years ago I took my son to shoot his 22 for the first time. We were clearly doing the father son thing, and these knuckleheads chose to sit right next to us, despite there being plenty of open lanes, and start popping AK rounds. The muzzle blast under the metal roof was sharp and uncomfortable. Brass was ejecting into our spot. My 6yr boy couldn’t get comfortable to shoot his own gun. I asked the guys if they didn’t mind moving, that it was my son’s first time shooting, but they didn’t oblige. I just so happened to also have my braked 378 Weatherby Euromark that I wanted to sight in, so I had my son sit down for a second, and I got my rifle out. I sat way back and made sure the brake was about even with their their shooting position. The blast was incredible under the metal roof, probably borderline dangerous. One round and they stopped shooting. Checked my POI, and loaded another round. The second round they moved to the other side of the range. One jerk move earns another.
