caldwell e-max Hearing Protection for shooting

[hobbleone]

FOR SOMEONE DOING A REVIEW FOR HEARING PROTECTION, YOU WOULD THINK THAT THE NRR SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED. OTHERWISE, A DECENT REVIEW.

@hobbleone what is nrr ??

[Commiefornia]

@xdmatt1320 NRR stands for Noise Reduction Rating and is listed as decibels. Keep in mind that decibel scale measurements aren't linear, but rather logarithmic and increase exponentially like the Richter scale for earthquakes. The higher the NRR number the better the earmuffs are at reducing loud noises.

do you know of any retchargeble earmuffs ?

[xdmatt1320]

@ThePeopleneedhelp not of hand

[ThePeopleneedhelp]

@xdmatt1320 what do you mean?

[CampfireTalk]

Man I'm seeing those more & more on you tube & at the range. Thanks for the video Matt. That will be my next pair of muff.

Hey, I was always wondering about those electronic earmuffs. What happens if the electronics fail? Will they function as regular earmuffs? (I'm interested since you said it was only $24, that's how much I paid for my non-electronic ones and I'm kinda regretting it now)

[xdmatt1320]

@DemonHide Ya they work even when turned off all the electric part dose is amplify sound so you can hear and it shuts off rite when you fire the gun

[DemonHide]

@xdmatt1320 Thanks for the info. I'll definitely look into these.

Matt, is that a Charter Arms, revolver?

[xdmatt1320]

@cpmower No it is a Taurus Model 85 in 38 sp

[cpmower]

@xdmatt1320 Nice! Looking into the Ruger LCR, but that Taurus looks nice too.
