[QUOTE="Wraith Hunter, post: 2127181, member: 107141"] Dead Eye, Try Action Ear Sport earphones. They amplify the sounds of animals walking etc. They look like hearing protectors! The amplification can be adjusted and at any amplification level they have a feature that turns off the amplifier when a loud sound, like a gun shot, occurs. They will, in my opinion, protect your hearing quite well. As to taping the muzzle brake. Any tape or wrap placed around the ports of a muzzle break can significantly increase the pressure the brake sees for a micro second or so. Most brakes are designed to withstand the pressure of the caliber the brake is designed for at the end of the barrel. Will all muzzle brakes withstand the increased pressure caused by the application of a tape wrap? I would not bet my hands etc on it! The Action Ears system has a distinct advantage as the on/off hearing protection circuit in the amplifier will turn back on quickly after a shot allowing one to hear if the animal is running etc after the shot. So, a second or third shot will have the same protection as if you were wearing good ear muffs while still allowing you to hear a deer walking through the grass before and after each shot. [/QUOTE]
