[QUOTE="Mad Professor, post: 3045474, member: 5316"] The difference in sound changing the caps is going to depend on many conditions. From the shooter's perspective there usually negligible difference when outdoors from an uncovered shooting position. Any additional noise is down range. From an observer, the sound will increase depending on his position. Any as any cover increases forward of the shooters head, the difference will increase. Once the cover is in front of the muzzle it will be more. If shooting toward something the reflect sound it will increase. That said, a short rifle suppressor like my mini-4 gives up a bunch. But it is almost hearing safe on a 10.5" barrel .223, and is hearing safe on 12.5" or longer .223. It's all in what your end goal is. [/QUOTE]
