Ported vs non ported Guide gun

I have both at present time,I liked the ported one in the begining and then with a few shots without hearing protection ive switched to the non ported you can figure it out I was tone deaf for about two weeks,ive since bought an 1895ss and the cowboy to keep the muzzle blast away from my ears,I could actually feel the precusion on the ported one,I shoot 400 gr speers with 55.5 grains of h322for 1800 ft \sec,DO NOT LOAD THESE YOURSELF WITH OUT WORKING UP YOUR LOADS AS THESE WERE PUBLISHED MAXIMUMS AND ARE SAFE IN MY GUNS THEY ARE HEFTY LOADS AND THE NEW MANUALS HAVE DECREASED THE GRAINS AS THE H322 looks like they have changed the powder the new powder is a different colour more yellow than charcoal.

Shooting a 26" Marlin 1895 Cowboy is much different than shooting either the ported or non ported 18" GG. Not even a close comparison as far as recoil and noise goes.
 
thats why the guide guns were put in the back of the safe,they are pretty handy when i walk for deer,i ussually let ''friends '' shoot the guide gun with the 400 grainers,they never asked to shoot again ,did the same thing when i went sighting in my rifles,a friend and i were shooting in the rifles in a sand pit when we locals show up and asked to shoot ,friend says okay and they proceed to shoot his 444 marlin'i finally sugested them to shoot my 458 lott one shot lots of blood from the eyebrow and they never bothered us again.hehehe ya im a sadest but they basically would not stop shooting his ammo cured there probblem with them this was in 21b ontario
