I did a cursory search, but didn't really find a relevant answer.
I want to get the grandkids (12-16yo) into small game hunting to the extent they want to try. Squirrels predominantly so we're talking .22LR with a Ruger 10/22. Background, I'm a seasoned citizen with hearing well damaged from the old days of inadequate protection. I don't want that to be handed down Part of that damage is from hunting with large and small bores uh, without protection. After all, it's only a few shots, right?
Q: mostly small game, occasional varmint, unsupressed .22lr, afore mentioned 10/22, what would be a useful choice between full earmuffs (minimal game awareness even with electronics?) and nothing (full game location) or what in between?
-jb, tired of saying "huh?"
