Wear the ear plugs. I cant Imagine how loud that thing s is. I have an Armalite AR-30 300 win mag (with a muzzle break) and that thing is loud . The 460 will be a good bit louder than that. ANd that is just obscene.A good bit of the expanding gases (and noise) will be redirected directly to your ears.
