The indoor range that our group shoots at over the past 5 years has pistol only and rifle and pistol lanes.
One of the guys brings his 50 cal Desert Eagle or his S&W 500 50 cal magnum almost every time, and our group gets to shoot it. It will get the attention of nearly everyone within 10 lanes because the sound is obviously the loudest of any gunfire at the time.
Of course the recoil and muzzle flip is typically way more than most people have experienced.
I don't find the sound level or the pressure level, concussion, to be uncomfortable at all. At 6 feet behind the shooter of 500 magnum, the concussion hitting my chest is a new experience. In fact, while watching others shoot, there is lots of joking and laughs about its "big bang". My Howard Leight Impact Sport earmuffs work fine.
