They have a rating of 30. All the other competitors that have this kind of rating cost $250-$500.

For example, Peltor makes these at NRR 26 for $200.00.

26 isn't bad but remember that the dB scale is logarithmic so a difference of 4dB cuts the sound by more than half.

Pro-Ears make one with NRR30 but they retail for $340. Amazon dealers want $260.00

These are quite a bit lighter at 13.5 oz. The HL model is 1.2 lbs (19.20z.)

For $190.00 of savings, I can deal with 6 oz.

I do most of my shooting indoors and the HS Sports model (NRR20) that I've been using for over a year don't have near the protection they need for inside. I always have to double them up with ear plugs but again, that makes it hard to understand what's being said. I do a lot of instructing and competing so I need to understand what's being said.

Just wondering if anyone has these and how they work.

I don't know anything about any of them, except I will not buy first ones you listed. They are made in China.

The other two are reported as made in Sweden and the USA. :thumbs2:
