You see complaints in reviews about the Leight electronic muffs not providing sufficient protection for heavily loaded indoor pistol shooting. I don't disagree. I frankly only use the electronic muffs for a little help on top of really good foam plugs (-31 dB). IMO the main advantage of the electronic muffs is not hearing protection but rather amplification of the lower amplitude sounds so that you can give and take instruction and hear what is going on around you while at the range or in the field. But even only -22 dB extra protection is significant on top of the foam plugs, and the amplification is very worthwhile. The Leight Pro model is a little better at -30 dB, I think, but I sill always wear plug under them. I just can't mount my shotgun with the Pro model on. I'm hoping the Sports I have ordered will solve that problem.
