I was perusing though the Malboro gun show a few weeks back when I came across a vendor I've seen a few times making custom fit hearing protection. I was interested and since I hadn't bought anything as of that time (Small Wonder) I figured what the hell. I filled out the form, gave the guy my cash and sat in the chair as he mixed up some gunk.
Let me just say that having the gunk put into your ears threw a syringe is a very wierd experience. But I was very surpised when I went to the range on how well they work at keeping the noise out. I bought them to give it a try and am completely satisfied with the outcome. The custom plugs keep out more noise then when I would use the yellow cylinder sponge plugs with my ear muffs. When using the custom plugs and the ear muffs I couldn't hear a damn thing. Which is going to be GREAT when I get that Serbu BFG-50 in a few weeks.
Another great thing was that I could get a much better cheek weld on my rifle without having to worry about my ear muff getting in the way. I'm sure plenty of folks use these aready. But for anyone who doesn't yet, these things are great. I wish I'd gotten a pair sooner
