Hearing suppressed bullet impacts

[Mel Glass]

Do you always hear the bullet impact when shooting hog suppressed?

Most of the time. Sometimes the excitement is too much and I don't remember. Usually when checking the video you then realize that you should have heard it.

Usually. If the distance is far enough you can sometimes hear the impact of a bullet even when shooting unsuppressed.

Guess in the excitement I’m not hearing a few.

What der Teuful said. That and assuming that wind and other shooting doesn't cover it. I sometimes find it easier to hear the impact of my partner's shot than my own.

Indeed. If you're paying attention and listening for it you'll find it's pretty noticeable. It's easy to overlook but once you start thinking about it the sound of the 'THWAP' becomes more obvious.

Always hear the suppressed impact - no... Usually hear bullet impact - yes.
Distance, other shooters fire, etc, plays into what I hear...
