I am hand loading for my AR 15 using between 20.0 and 25.0 of H335 with 55 grain bullets. When I am shooting at the range quite a few other shooters comment on how loud my AR is. I don't have a muzzle break, just a target crown on the barrel.
Why would it be any louder than any other 223 ? The loads I am using are not that hot are they ?
