So what does everyone use for hearing protection? I had a chance to use some electronic earmuffs the other day and really liked them. I currently just use disposable and re-usable ear plugs. ---

Big +1. Earmuffs are really only useful, IMO, for shooting pistols. With most rifles, the earmuff will rest against the stock when you’re shooting, which restricts positioning and prolly creates more noise than it cancels lol. ---

They make electronic plugs as well that cancel out all noises over XX dB, but I know they’re not cheap. Nice though if you don’t wanna tae your earplugs out for normal conversation, although it does feel nice if you’ve had them in a while lol. ---

I’d like to buy a Nighthawk or Wilson. Maybe someday. The Kimber I had was a TLE/RL II in stainless (.45). Appearance wise it looked great, I just wasnt a fan of how it felt like I would have to put 500+ rounds through it to make it loosen up. ---
