The owner of the farm I do a lot of my deer and coyote hunting has asked me if I could use a quieter gun for most of my shooting. I don't know if it is him or his neighbors or just the amount of shooting I do, but I am trying to stay in his good graces as I shoot 4 or 5 deer and up to 10 coyotes a year off his place. I do most of my shooting with a 221 fireball, 250 savage, and 7-08, so I didn't think I was being that loud to begin with.
I do not like the cheap breed of rifles on the market today, but am considering the Ruger American in 300BLK for hunting on his place. I've never shot a 300BLK/AAC/Wisper, but I would assume about the same performance as a 30-30. How about noise without a can? Noise with a can and full power loads?
I get that it's primary reason for existence is silenced subsonic ammo, but is it still quieter with full power loads than other hunting rounds, silenced or not?
