Here is the question is it legal to hunt with a suppressed rifle on private property. I have looked and can not see any laws making it illegal. Thanks for your time on this site.
Wanted to use a suppressor on a 308 to quiet it down with sub sonic loads it is pretty quiet, with all the anti gun/hunting types it would be nice, people only complain about what they can hear and see. There really is no such thing as a silencer you can make a rifle silent only quiet it down. Encon thanks
You might be able to get around it if you show medically that you have a hearing issue, talked to a guy in Maine who did this. If it's that important to you it might be worth checking into.
Back home we got a taxidermy man. He gonna have a heart attack when he see what I brung him.

There's no exemption in the statute. If you have a hearing issue you can wear earplugs or muffs. They make the one's that you can still hear with or amplify sound, then shut down with a loud noise.
