[QUOTE="tuscan, post: 1589125, member: 90621"] I have 3 TBAC ultra7s, and do use them hunting. Last year made 3 big game kills with them, 2 aoudad (one was a friends who borrowed my rifle) and one elk, at ranges of 215 to 365 yards. In each case, the animals were in a herd. The other animals in the group did not spook at the shots. In my friend's case, he was shooting in a strong cross wind and missed his first shot, but the ram stayed in place unperturbed by the noise. His follow up shot corrected for the wind and put the ram down. If not for the suppressor, I don't think he would have gotten that ram. When I shot the elk, he was in a herd of about 30. A friend was going to be hunting that area in the next few days, so I waited after my shot for the herd to leave. I had to wait about 30 minutes for them to gradually graze out of the area before could attend to the downed elk. I'm a big believer in hunting with suppressors. Usually, though, I will stalk to my shooting position and then attach the brake if I have time. So far, I've always had time, but don't expect I always will and so have hearing protection also.
