Yeah I realize they can try different ammo or develop a new load but they can also just use $0.25 ear plugs.
Get some real world experience with quality suppressors and you will realize both of your above statements were complete fallacy.

I’ve shot a bunch of em got a friend who’s probably got a dozen. From a 22 to some kinda 416 barret or something like that. Dead air silencerco etc.. shot a bunch of them. They’re a fad. They provide no practical advantage hunting
