Does exploding ammo affect the modifier to perception checks to hear a firearm being used I know it may seem to be obvious to some, but I have to ask for two reasons: 1. because I'm curious as to whether or not exploding ammo is louder than the noise of a suppressed weapon (which can still be quite loud), and 2. because as far as I can tell, Shadowrun doesn't differentiate between the noise of the firearm's discharge, the noise of the round breaking the sound barrier, and the noise of impact, which makes the subject kinda fuzzy in my head.
