Low Profile Ear Muffs ??

[Shane916]

Curious if anyone can recommend a pair of non-electronic low profile pair of ear muffs. Preferably the higher NRR the better

I have the Howard Leight L3 "Leightning" but they tend to be rather thick.

Thanks!

Been looking for the same thing. The standard sized muffs I have get knocked loose by the stock when shooting off of the bench.

Exactly! I found some other Howard Leight ones that are low pros.

I'm leaning towards the L1 or the L0F. Mostly the L1 as it has a NRR of 25

Wow. Haven't seen that before. Do you have one of those?

[baldoHHO]

Howard Leight also makes a very low pro electronic too. No more than $55, and I've seen them cheap as $40.

I really like mine. Great battery life, and automatic shut-off after 4 hours. If you don't like the power on, they are 30 rated with the power off.

I'd never seen these before, very interesting. I use electronic ears and they get hot during summer matches & sometimes get in the way with rifle stages.

Do you have the stouter NRR 31 one or the NRR 26 one? The site doesn't really make a recommendation about which is better suited for shooting.

Gunshots are supposed to be 140-170dbs, which would be off the chart on their graph:

Peltor shotgunner I use these at work, pretty good.


Midway is having a sale on their Tactical 6S' though. I have a pair of these and they're great.


I also have the Howard leights at work, the ear cups get hard after a while, but the peltor's stay softer longer. They're also easier to find and replace too I think.

Im first generation convert so i have NRR26 UPGRADING to NRR31.
These are very easy to situate behind the neck/ on top of the head/ hanging
in front the neck/ very light & non powered...i think i may initiate a group buy!!

I have 3 pairs of the Peltor H61FS, and like the low profile : http://www.flecktarn.co.uk/dpped1ux.html
