[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2962482, member: 75451"] It’s been pretty warm here also, the last two mornings have been above 10 F. I dare say that the vast majority of us employ hearing protection when shooting, but a much smaller number when hunting. Speaking only for myself, I don't use hearing protection when hunting as only a fe, lately very few 🤬, shots are fired from my (non-braked) rifle for the season when hunting. The exception to the above is when attempting to hunt with my 460 S&W handgun …..braked! When hunting with it, fairly rare, I wear electronic ([URL]https://goaxil.com/products/gx-extreme[/URL]) ear protection! With the wires hanging on you, they're kind-of a PIA, but I need/want the hearing enhancement as much of my handgun hunting is done in heavy cover in bear habitat. It the very unlikely event of a bad encounter……I'd like to possibly have a bit of a "heads-up" before I become a statistic! 😉 memtb [/QUOTE]
