Anyone take their hearing protection to a rock concert?
Has that been confirmed by a hearing test? I know a lot of people that think they hear just fine but don't.
I have Howard Leight ImpactPro Electronic Shooting Sports Earmuffs, which I bought based on the recommendation of someone here awhile back. I'm very happy with them. The noise reduction rating is 30 decibels. They amplifiy low level sound while reducing gunfire or other "impulse noise". Besides doing their intended job very well they are way more comfortable to wear than the cheapie ones ranges have on hand for people who don't bring their own. Under them I wear hearo's, which are cheap rubbery plugs that come in a box, they look kinda like silly putty, you roll them between your fingers and stuff them in your ears and they mold to the shape.I would like to upgrade hearing protection. I have a lot of hearing loss. Too many years of racecars, rock n roll, and chipping hammers. and of course hunting and shooting. Can anyone steer me toward a better choice in hearing protection? I use plugs and inexpensive muffs now.
I jusy copy and pasted the following from an article.....
A CCI standard velocity .22LR out of a 3½” barrel registers 160.7 decibels.
