That's just about the stupidest thing I've read on this board to date.
So I guess you missed this little gem:

It's a dead heat..
I'm sure we won't have to wait long for one of them to better it... PS- It seems like DD is confusing suppressors with muzzle brakes--I hope so.
Nope, I'm not confusing anything. A .223 flies at about mach 2 to mach 3. There will still be a lot of noise even with the suppressor and hearing protection will be needed if you aren't going to lose your hearing.
I'm trying save everyone's hearing. Go ahead and shoot without hearing protection I don't care. Ask your self why do ammo manufacturers manufacture sub-sonic ammo for suppressor use if there was no need for it.
