How loud are brakes, to the shooter, in a hunting situation, in the woods?

[QUOTE="memtb, post: 1340510, member: 75451"] Bigeclipse, I realize that I'm a bit late to the party here, but I'll put in my 2 cents worth. This comment is for a hunting rifle!!!Before I ever "brake" a rifle (again), it will have to kick "MUCH" worse than my sub 9 lb. .375 AI. Many years ago, I shot it twice in a simulated hunting situation. Two different positions, once seated with a steep hillside behind me, the other was standing in wide open prairie. The results were the same....severe pain, wanted to check to see if blood was running from my ears. Maybe with some of today's modern hearing protection that will "silence" the blast but allow you to hear normally, I'd consider it! The only other situations would be for a rifle/rifles dedicated for pleasure shooting (not hunting). My hunting rifle....will not carry a "weed-burner"! I think that brake became a $160.00 fishing weight! I hope that no one misunderstand my position! There is supposed to be a "smiley face here, but can't " get'r done"! memtb [/QUOTE]
