[QUOTE="blipelt, post: 412965, member: 11310"] I get the chance to wear hearing protection every day at work for my Personal Protective equipment. One thing about wearing the ear plugs people tend to talk louder when wearing them. Which isn't a problem if you hunt by yourself. Now most muzzle blasts(non braked also) are above 85decibels. This is when hearing damage starts to occur. So you should wear them all the time. I hate wearing hearing protection when hunting, but I have noticed the loss of hearing and figure I better start before it is to late. I purchased a cheap(about $60) pair of noise cancelling ear plugs awhile back and found out they are worthless. I don't know if the more expensive ones are better I haven't found anyone who uses them. I am going the route of the suppressor/silencer. I think they are worth the time and effort. Brent [/QUOTE]
