I've carefully avoided any centerfire wíth a barrel under 20" after the Remington 600 .308 I owned about 1970 (no earplugs, of course). At the range last week, a guy showed up with a 18" Ruger .308, Scout I think. Was prepared to double up with plugs under my muffs, but the -30 e-muffs actually handled the noise pretty well. Still, I'm staying with my 20" rule, unless someday I get a can. Not sure about what happened in next-door VA with the new laws, but if cans were banned, it really reduces my incentive to get one.


What fresh Hell is this?
