Otto noise barrier micros work great. Started with Howard Lieght muffs, went to a set of Axils plugs, and finally got a pair of Ottos. They're the best I've tried. Good for range use and hunting.
Wow, that’s really surprising, mine are like 20 years old and have been great. Shot uspsa all those years so not like they’ve been protected.Pro Ears were the biggest mistake I've made buying ear pro. They are complete junk and I couldn't recommend them less.
I'm normally not that negatively opinionated about products (although there are plenty I don't care for), but I do my best to steer people away from Pro Ears. Mine broke constantly, are not remotely water resistant, and can't handle any bit of moderately hard use. They were an unbelievable waste of my time and money.

What your go to hearing protection when you're at the range?
That's what i always used. Mine were 24yrs old from when i worked at Omega Wire in Bremen, but i broke them back when we had the July shoot. I have Stihl muffs also but interference when using long guns.I use what Hickok45 uses. They're inexpensive but very effective.

I use these for hunting because I can pull them on and off very quickly, but make no mistake, they are NOT proper ear protection for indoor or sustained outdoor shooting.I use what Hickok45 uses. They're inexpensive but very effective.

I have a set of sony noise canceling, never tried em for shooting, I will have to try em out sometime.Anybody use noise cancelling beats headphones?? I seriously hear nothing when I shoot.
I use my Bose QC35s when I am out shooting handguns alone. They work really well.Anybody use noise cancelling beats headphones?? I seriously hear nothing when I shoot.
I have this problem also with muffs. It's probably because they're not an expensive pair and they're definitely not slim. When shooting a rifle the crest of the buttstock always pushes the right side up. Probably wouldn't be a problem if I had a slim design or used a lot of taller mounted optics using a 1.93" or taller. I pretty much shoot suppressed all the time so I just do ear plugs when shooting rifles. I wear the muffs shooting pistolsThere is no actual answer to this. It all depends on what you are doing. As someone said above, running suppressed is the best help, but even with that, sometimes you still need some ear protection. If I am going by myself. I don’t worry about having the fancy electronic ear muffs. Some guns seem to push the muffs off kilter, so ear plugs are better.
