caballero Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Hi Just coming back into shooting and just wondered what everyone recommends for ear protectors. I'm just doing a bit of rough shooting and a few clays. I would be grateful for your thoughts. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guest1957 Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 I have some Bisley branded electronic ear defenders. Much more comfortable than the in-ear sonic II defenders I used to use, but they cost a fair bit more. Worth every penny though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COACH Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 A BIT of rough shooting..... Nothing as you need to hear when rough shooting. Clay shooting...... a set of moulded ear plugs. If you use the muffs they hurt your ears after a while but worse is that when you mount properly you will get a clunk when the stock hits the ear piece and it puts you off. Your thinking about that clunk instead of concentrating on the target and the target only. I see many people wearing muffs and not shooting well because they are not getting the gun into the cheek because the ear muffs are in the way and they don`t want to make that clunk sound on them from raising the gun into the cheek. Causes a lot of missing over the top. I`v asked them to take them off and use those awful EAR roly- up ones for a while and they start dusting everything. How ever it`s not true with every one but definitely most. The muffs are not good in the rain either if electrical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diceman Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Napier Pro-10. More comfortable than the in ear ones and no clunking like the full over ear ones. Work a treat as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that, for the amount i'm shooting I think i'll invest in the Pro 10's rather than £50-£60 for the moulded Regards Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
