[QUOTE="davyd, post: 121403, member: 3770"] [b]\"Quiet crowns\" - reducing percieved noise and ear damage?[/b] With a growing interest in protecting my remaining hearing while hunting I have been told of "quiet crowning". 1-2 inches depth of wider than bullet crilling in the end of the barrel. This effectively would form a sleeve and project the sound forward away from the shooter. Not unlike a muzzle break but pushing everthing forward I have seen something similar on a .22lr that seemed to work. Has anyone come across this sort of setup and was it effective? Ideally I would use a sleeve over the end of my varmint rig and ear plugs to protect my delicate ears when out in th field -assuming it can be done legally in Australia [/QUOTE]
