Looking for electronic hearing protection (in ear)

[grouse]

some older threads on this, but the technology changes so fast.

Looking at Walkers, 3M and SOund gear right now. Any thoughts? THe sound gear are in canal and supposed to eliminate wind noise because of that.

Tagging! I wish my insurance pays for them though.

Also interested. I cant use over ears with rifles, always been interested in in-ears.

Etmyotic is what I use

I have the Sound Gear. They are ok, but don't cut out the shot noise completely. They just reduce the decibels. I use Howard Leight muffs more often since they shut off the noise completely.

I think the hunting situation is most important to me. at the Range, I dont mind wearing the muffs with better protection

I saw this advertised on FB but have no idea how well they work, but it is buy one, get one free.

Double up !! I'm using GAP Jaeger suppressor & Grizzly Ears Predator Pro.

Sound gear hands down. I've struggled with this for a while and got sound gear they are fantastic.
Like stated above they work Greta for hunting and I never have an issue but if at the range with a break you still want some muffs after several shots.

Sound gear has worked great for me.

Thanks. I guess you get what you pay for

I've tried a few and none are great. The best option is a suppressor. I know that's not what the op is looking for but it's true. Also, it's the oldest type of technology out there for the purpose lol.

 

[grouse]

I hear you. Need to get one.

I vote sound gear. Took me a while to take the plunge. I've damaged my hearing hunting with revolvers. I have the instant fit. I think if I did it again, I'd probably go with the custom fit. The instant fit can be difficult to remove if they slide in a bit and with cold fingers. As good as they are, they ARE NOT a suitable replacement for muffs or other forms of better hearing protection at the range. They are now a permanent part of my hunting gear.
