“Sometimes I wear ear plugs AND ear muffs. It sounds silly to some people but I like being able to hear.”
We often do the same thing. It depends on which gun we are using for target practice. You need something a lot more for some firearms than you do others. But no matter what, if hubby can hear me yelling even with his ear protection in place, then he needs better quality protection.

I agree. I won’t fire my husband’s .50 rifle because it’s like getting beat up and it is way too loud. I have a few .308 rifles and using plugs and muffs is enough to keep out the noise. I have a suppressor for my AR-10 but my precision rifles are not suppressed because it affects their range and accuracy.
