Fast forward to this fall. I told him if he’s going to shoot that rifle with the brake on that he had better pack ear protection. “Naw, I won’t even notice the bang while I’m hunting......”
Well the moose ran out, the gun went boom.... boom.... boom.
Once we met up he unknowingly yelled “My ears are eff’d up! The first shot really hurt but the next two weren’t so bad”
His hearing was shot for two days then slowly started to recover. I’ll take recoil over hearing loss any day of the week.

Or a sweet 7-08 and don't really worry cuz it only takes one shot , a little bark and a slight nudge on the shoulder.....man on the range with a breaked rifle...loud and crap blowing all around it if shooter is not aware of what was around the barrel.....
