Hearing protection when hunting

[bigfellascott]

Yeah it don't half hurt the ears when something like that happens! Those Scots have got the right idea, unfortunately we are governed by F@#$wits who really have SFA idea of the real world, all their knowledge comes from moves and newspapers and TV new reporters, completely clueless the lot of em.

I do not believe that not wearing any prot is going to make any difference whatsoever whilst hunting.

For culling purposes yes, and target shooting.

How many shots do you fire whilst hunting at a target and at what frequency?

Ok ok ok... see already what some of you may nail me on ..... hehehe

A fella from Scotland told me that OH&S is taken so seriously nowadays, that the equivalent of the F/Arms branch over there, quite often ask registered F/Arm owners if they want the classification that enables ownership of a Moderator / Silencer.

Same in NZ. Suppressors over there are an OH&S issue (amazingly not a terrorist accessory for assassinating politicians like people here seem to think).

I've read some ranges there actually require them in fact.

I fire 2-3 then realise my ears are hurting and put the muffs back on
