Oh I do that even if I'm just shooting my .22s. If I'm ever in danger and need to shoot something I'll gladly trade a bit of hearing for my life, but hearing loss is a serious problem.
I am not a lawyer, nor have I played one on TV, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, nor should anything I say be taken as legal advice. If it is important that any information be accurate, do not use me as the only source.

Great advice. You can get neither your hearing nor your life back once it's gone.
