I use those thin ear muffs that amplify sound but block gun shots. They are great. You can actually hear game better than before and never notice the gun shot. I recently bought another pair of Walker Razors for $35. That is really cheap and they do great. They never hinder my cheek weld or get in my way. They are not uncomfortable in hot weather, but they keep my ears warm in cold. Win win win.
What does OP mean? Is it Old Phart?
66 years old. I started hand loading in 1963, summer before the third grade, a few months before they shot Kennedy.

btw, are you an old phart ?
How about you, Direct Drive? How old are you?
How hard is it to wear hearing protection? I have a set of muffs that even amplify sound until a gun shot goes off and then it mufflers it just like normal ear protection. I can hear deer from 150 yards off. That's way better then doing something with tape that could either screw up your gun or screw up your point of aim and is not likely to do anything for the sound.

When hunting i tape the muzzle to keep stuff out . I dont find the noise from a brake that bad from shooters perspective but hell on others off to the side. The tape is blown off at tge muzzle, leaving tape on tve sides , which i use to retape muzzle. Have not taped the brake, but like others have said, it will not reduce noise level. I for one like my ears to hear when hunting.
Do you remember the day they shot Kennedy? I do. I was in the third grade. And just starting to learn to handload for my Winchester .243.66
And no, I'm not giving out my Zodiac sign nor am I posting any pics, so don't ask.
Absolutely
Did you ever hear about electronic hearing protection??
Best deal for the money. I have a pair and love them: https://buyaxil.com/
