[QUOTE="Chase723, post: 2366258, member: 21524"] You can make it much quieter. It’ll be ~137-142 dB. Compared to 170-173 unsupressed. That’s 100x quieter since decibels are logarithmic. Regardless, it’s quieter than any unsuppressed 30-06. I also don’t even shoot 300 win mag anymore. R Cram is the one who brought it up so I was using his example. I shoot different cartridges which are more efficient and therefore I can get similar performance with a shorter barrel, using less powder at baseline and are therefore a much better choice to begin with.
