I have been using the silicon molded in-the-ear plugs for years and they don't bother me (unless I chew gum). I have tried the electronic muffs and like the enhanced speech feature but cannot shoot with them. My main usage would be in clays shooting. I am the New Mexico Youth Shooting Program Coordinator and spend a fair amount of time judging clays competitions. It would be nice to hear conversation better, but continue to maximize muzzle blast protection. I assume that the molded silicone ear plugs offer good protection.


The only constant in life is change.
