Re: Electronic in-ear hearing protection
I found that the electronic ear muffs never provided the same level of protection as the regular kind. No matter what I am shooting (even using a suppressor) I double up using ear plugs and a set of peltors with 30 NRR. I tried other kinds but peltors seem to have a softer cushion around the ear that provide better coverage than the other brands. If I was going to a shooting class I might consider using electronic ear muffs but shooting at the gun club the non electronic ones work for me and provide more protection.

Re: Electronic in-ear hearing protection
I’ve used both the Howard Leight muffs and the Walker silencer plugs with success. I shoot at an outdoor range, with overhead cover and never felt that the noise reduction wasn’t enough. I have only used the plugs once while sighting in my 300 savage and they allowed for a good cheek weld with the stock that I was never able to get with muff style ear pro.
