    Yes , it is a bit louder than it sounds on the video , but i think it is quiet enough to not need ear plugs if shooting all day.

    Restraint is the better part of dignity. Don't justify getting even. Do not do unto others as they do unto you if it will cause harm.

    When reloading them.give them a shine up...makes them easier to find.i do it while they in chuck thingy for trimming cases,hold a choreboy type cloth against them....1200grit wet n dry if really bad.only takes a few seconds to have them looking like new again.
