Hi
Well im new here and this is my first post so first I would like to say hello.
Well now the problem. I just got this 45 and against better judgment I shot it with out hearing protection. Well let me tell you it about blew my ear drums out. I have a g22 and have shot it without the same results. I know I should wear something for hearing protection but I wanted to get a feel for what it was like without it, so I would know what to exspect if I ever was in a position were I had to use it for defence. The bullets were winchester 230 grain fmj. My question is this. Is there a load out there that would not shock my ears as bad? I sure wouldnt like to have to bear that pain in a defensive situation.
Thanks in advance
steve
