RE: Speak up!
Yup, could have been worse than some ringing ears, glad to hear your OK. I have never been fond of safety glasses but they are one of those things you are only allowed to forget once.
Again, glad your ears and pride took the most of the damage.

Holy Cow!! Glad you are ok!! Remington will want to get their hands on that real bad, no pun intended, lol. Would have pegged you for a bolt action type rather than an auto loader. Hear all kinds of good things about some Savage models, hint hint.

RE: Speak up!
DNK, man I'm glad you are OK. I too hear ringing all the time from years of shooting guns with no ear protection. Now it's, "The quieter it gets in a room, the loader the ringing gets". Terrible!
But on the Remington thing, I've got friends that will not have another Remington rifle because of them blowing up and Remington not making it good. They say that they used the incorrect bullets or loaded it wrong or other excuses and left my friends holding the bag. I personally haven't had any problems with a Remington gun, but only own one now. An XP100 piston in 221 Remington Fireball. I sold allmy other Remingtons a long time ago. I always thought Remington was good people and maybe they deal with people on a case by case thing so I hope you get your gun replaced with no problems. The great thing is, you didn't get hurt except for the ringing diease thingy. Way to go wearing those safety glasses. Let us know about the replacement progress on this gun. OK?

RE: Speak up!
Just got a phone call today from the shop I bought the gun from. They are trying to find me Savage LOL!
I had no doubt that they would replace it. I still have two bows on order but I didn't need the leverage because I knew they would only do the right thing.
