About 30 years ago I shot a box of 44 magnums in a Model 29 S&W. After the second or third shots, my ears rang, somewhat more with more shots. That ringing had never "not gone away" before, but this ringing never did. So much for youthful invulnerability.

Modern hearing devices do help, and they get better everyday. When people ask about my hearing loss, I usually tell them it was from heridity and stupidity. Do wear protection.
