Got to love some of the wisdom in the older manuals. In the Speer #8 under the .22 Hornet (Pistol) talking about muzzle blast. "Be especially sure the gun muzzle is outside the car window before shooting"

We used to shoot whistle pigs out the window of a truck when I was a kid . Wasn't unusual to see a vehicle on the side of the road glassing a field or hillside looking for a shot .
I wouldn't use the shotshell loading data in that manual either.
Speer #8 is known for some , shall we say, "hot" loads................
Certainly pre lawyer loads, they would have made Elmer happy!
I had a Thompson Center pistol with K-Hornet barrel. Shot a lot of Gophers with that one, many out the window. It was plenty noisy doing it too as I loaded them pretty hot with 1680 and Nosler BT's.
I shot my TC Hornet ONCE without hearing protection. That was enough for me.
Solved the noise problem with my TC Hornet.....
