Howdy all, this is my first post and I hope someone can help me out with this question. A while back I found the need to own a rifle (I've been a shotgun only guy for a long time) and my father-in-law owns a small gun shop and noticed I was eye'n a used Savage 110 in 7mm rem mag, so he gave it to me. I put a good scope on it, we worked up a real good handload for it, the gun shoots great! The problem I have is that the gun has a 22" barrel that is ported very heavy. This gun makes a BOOM like I've never heard before and is very painful to shoot without ear protect. I really want to hunt with this gun, but I'm affraid to because of the noise. Does any have any suggestion?
