Ounce outside while taking a rabbit. Painfull. If you compare the decibel reading on a 357 mag to other calibers it doesn't look like that much more, but it is. Really good hearing protection will decrease the db reading by 27-29 db. Subtract that from 164db of a 357 mag and your still high db level. The 357 mag has a higher decibel level than a 30'06 rifle.
