    Definitely not if you're as colossally stupid as you'd have to be to shoot a braked rifle with no earmuffs...

    .338LM + a brake that increases noise on a level similar to APA brake which it strongly resembles + earmuffs = probably 10db or 2x perceived loudness louder, or more, compared to ODLs .338LM + can with no earmuffs figures, & probably still quite a lot higher noise level than 140db "impulse" "hearing safe" level

    However

    Thanks for bringing your rifle out to test Chris! What a picture perfect day!

    Here is a vid of the muzzle vents. I tried something new with the muzzle vents in an attempt to reduce some recoil in a small way and to keep flash minimized. It is definitely working.
