The oddest gut wrenching sound though is marking 300+ yrd targets and hearing that ssssshhhhhhhhhhhh tack thump ................. bang!!!!

I hear ya. When pulling targets for a high power shoot, it's just weird hearing the bullets zinging above your head before the rifle report.

I have never heard a bullet hit the target when I am shooting. Probably because I wear ear protection!

I have never heard a bullet hit an animal while hunting. Probably because all of my shots have been less than 200 yards. Less than 100 yards is typical for me. I think the report will drown out any sound of a hit within 200 yards.
