Minimizing Port Pop, actually hearing safe?

So I’ve always used ear pro but lately I’ve wanted to see how quiet my 8” 300 blk really is with subs. I reload them mostly but have used factory ammo too. Mostly 220’s for plinking but I reload 190 sub-x and 110 Vmax too.

I can’t find any real data on gas gun decibles at the shooters ear, just bolt guns, which in my experience are hearing safe but gas guns aren’t though. Sure it’s “quiet” but there still a snap that over extended exposure hurts my ears.

I have noticed on my reloads that lil gun seems quieter than H110, AA1680, and CFE Blk.

Currently ruining a G$ 8” barrel + Super 42/H1, Diligent Defense Enticer S, and a KAK downvent BCG.

So have any of y’all found any at the ear data to show the sound at the shooters ear is trying hearing safe on a gas gun, or have you found any powers or other things that have greatly reduced the sound at the shooters ear?
