I have the Peltor tactical 100. Actually two because they were on sale. Don't know if they're the best but they work. Even has an aux jack so you can plug music in. The music does not cancel out the microphones so you can hear people talking and have background music.

I like Peltor Tactical 100. Although the spring loaded muff retraction can be bothersome.

The peltors are nicer but the HL is in that great price range/durability mix where I can buy several for myself and anyone else who wants to shoot with me.

I use the Sonic Defenders under the Howard Leighs. Makes a significant difference when the guys with compensated open guns are shooting.

I recently bought a set of the cheap Peltors, they are no where near as good as the Howard Lights.

I have the new Peltor Tactical 500 but I haven't used in the range yet. Both the 500 and the 300 had sound compression technology. The 500 has bluetooth and few other extras but those are not worth the addition $. Both are huge improvement over the 100 model
I would highly recommending add another $20 more to your budget and get the new Peltor 300. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06WGRCH7J?tag=vglnk-c102-20 The 2 sub $50 electronic ear-pro I like are: Walker Razer Slim Opsmen M31 both are better than the Howard Leight |

Bought a pair of Walkers Razor Slim at Sam's Club the other day for $34.99, mostly just to have a spare.
They're rated at 23 DB, which is good for shotgun and pistol but not great for rifle. I put in a pair of spongies and used them with an AR at an indoor range last week, and the combo worked very well. |

SURELY you people are looking at the NRR for these el cheapo muffs. A rating of 22 (23 for the Boveke) is very low for firearms usage. A good set of muffs will provide have an NRR rating of 30 dB or higher. $55 muffs

I use/like the HL Impact Pro model.
A little bulkier but better db rating, and still within your budget. I also use cloth covers but you buy those separately The only time I need to double up is if the jackass next to me is running a braked SBR |

I double up almost everytime I shoot.
Have HL mentioned already and cheap Calwells {ka-belas buy} over ear plugs. I have the volume jacked up on both. Subbed for the extra goodies I haven't seen yet like the gel pads and what not.

Quote HistoryETA I also use cheapo ear plugs under these muffs when shooting my AR50. A friend recommended carrying the cheap foam plugs in the pocket all the time. As much as I shoot, I have found that to be great advice. Coupled up with these inexpensive HL muffs, it has been extremely effective. |

I don't think anyone has mentioned them yet but the Howard Leights are really good.
I also wear the Surefire plugs underneath. They are great as you don't need to roll them up you just stuff them in. |

Got the HL's today. Basic around the house testing is favorable, the real test will be this weekend. Bang! Bang!
I like that they came with a set of Duracell 's instead of some generic china batteries. You don't see that much anymore. A little thing for sure, but I noticed it. |

I shoot indoors a lot and have the HL impact muffs that I throw over the surefire plugs, if I don't shoot for a while sometimes the muffs get glued together from sweat or something, so I have to wipe them off and throw a slip of paper between them before they go back in the range bag.

I have had all the sub-$100 electronic ear pro and the Peltor tac 100's are the way to go for sure.
I think I am going to get some tac 500's soon. |

I like Howard-Leight when OUTSIDE.
I had an incident where mine were a little slow to kick on while I was on an indoor range . That hurt a bit. |
