A de pinger the noise of the hammer sound louder because it vibrates down the cylinder

Ear plugs? :D
I assume the problem is prey being startled rather than personal preferences.

You would be surprised how little hammer noise there is at 10 paces. Most of the noise travels via the stock right onto your ear,thus making it sound louder than it really is.
