ingwe,
Yes, I've read the hype about the 357mag 125gr loads.
But I've also shoot a bunch of them on an outdoor range in a 4" Ruger GP100. It was daylight and I was wear ear plug and ear muff. And the muzzle blast and noise was pretty substantial.
There's no way I'd want to touch off one of those rounds at night without hearing protection. We'd both be deaf and blind. Plus the perp would need to "stop, drop, and roll" to put himself out, lol!
