Does anybody know of a chart that lists how loud specific calibers are?

There would be no such all-encompassing chart because it would vary even within one given caliber depending on barrel length, type of load, type of firearm, muzzle devices, etc.

If you want you can chart your own by buying a db meter, they range in price from $30.00 and up.

There is *NO* $30 meter that has a fast enough rise time to capture a gun shot's peak.
You'll need a $3000 meter. Thats the price for a used one.

goto silencertalk.com and read the results page for some unsilenced testing results.
