Under no circumstance will I shoot a muzzle braked rifle without ear protection and the only reason I do use a muzzle brake, is because it allows me to be able to watch the bullet impact it's target...
On revolvers though, the perceived decrease in noise is something I have never been able to figure out. I don't know if it has to do with the type powders used, larger bores or what. I just don't know...
You are welcome for the load data. That has always been my go-to load for the 44 magnum and it has accounted for a LOT of deer out of a lot of different handguns...
Oh yeah, and you busting oranges at 50 yds. with a 2X pistol scope - excellent shooting! I have tried shooting a 2X pistol scope before and I just cannot do it. I hope you get the chance to kill a deer with your pistol, it can be very addictive...
I have asked Game and Fish if they thought they could offer something like a 3-day "handgun only hunt" for deer, and they said if enough people were interested in it, they would consider it....
