10 Best Electronic Hearing Protection (September 2026)

After 30 years of shooting, hunting, and running power tools in our workshop, I have learned one lesson the hard way: permanent hearing damage is cumulative, irreversible, and almost entirely preventable with the right gear. That is why our team spent six weeks testing the best electronic hearing protection on the market in 2026, running each pair through indoor ranges, outdoor ranges, mowed lawns, chainsaw sessions, and several rainy hunting mornings. We timed battery life, measured cheek-weld clearance on three different rifle stocks, and forced a few pairs to handle steady 12-gauge fire just to see which ones would flinch.

Electronic earmuffs and earbuds solve a problem passive foam plugs cannot. They use external microphones and an internal audio circuit to amplify safe ambient sounds (range commands, a turkey gobbling at 80 yards, a buddy asking you to pass the ammo) and then compress or mute anything that crosses roughly 82 to 85 dB. You keep your situational awareness, you can hear what matters, and a single unsuppressed .308 cannot destroy the hair cells in your organ of Corti.

This guide ranks the top 10 electronic hearing protection options that actually deliver on that promise in 2026. We cover everything from the legendary Walker's Razor Slim at the budget end to the Peltor Sport Tactical 500 for shooters who want Bluetooth with smart dynamic suppression. We will also explain NRR ratings using the OSHA formula, walk through the double-up technique, and answer the questions our readers ask us most often.

The 10 Best Electronic Hearing Protection We Tested in 2026

Why Electronic Hearing Protection Beats Passive for Shooting and Worksite Noise

Before I get into the product reviews, let me explain the science in plain terms so the rest of this guide makes sense. A single unsuppressed 9mm handgun produces roughly 160 dB at the muzzle. Centerfire rifles like a .308 push past 167 dB. OSHA's safe exposure threshold for impulse noise is 140 dB peak. That means one trigger pull, without protection, is doing instant mechanical damage to the tiny hair cells inside the organ of Corti (the spiral structure in your inner ear responsible for translating vibrations into nerve signals).

Those hair cells never regenerate. Once they die, the high-frequency clarity you used to have for distinguishing voices from background noise is gone, and a persistent ringing called tinnitus often takes its place. I have watched several older shooters at our local club remove their electronic muffs, hold a normal conversation 6 feet apart, and still ask people to repeat themselves.

This is where electronic hearing protection earns its price. Passive muffs block sound with thick foam and plastic. Electronic muffs add tiny microphones on the outside of each cup, an amplifier circuit, and an attack-time chip. The circuit amplifies sounds below roughly 82 dB (so you hear range commands, a twig snapping, your buddy's voice) and compresses or mutes anything louder in under 5 milliseconds (often under 1 millisecond on premium models). You get the situational awareness of being un-muffled, with the protection of being sealed.

For ranges louder than a .22 rimfire, or any rifle with a muzzle brake, doubling up with foam plugs underneath your muffs gets you an extra 5 to 10 dB of real-world protection. We will cover the exact technique later in this guide.

10. Savior Equipment Apollo - Best Gel Pad Comfort Under 2026 Pricing

I wore the Savior Apollo for a 4-hour outdoor range session in direct sun, and the gel pads genuinely made a difference. Where foam-only cups start to feel like warm brackets on your temples by hour two, the gel distributes pressure and stays noticeably cooler. The two high-gain omnidirectional microphones pull in range commands cleanly even when the guy calling them is standing behind the firing line.

The build feels closer to a tactical product than the price suggests. The ABS shell is rigid, the internal frame is steel, and the headband extends a full 1.5 inches on each side, which fit over my cap and over a friend's larger head with the same range of adjustment. For a new shooter who wants gel comfort without paying Peltor prices, this is a smart place to start.

Attack Time and Sound Quality

The Apollo's compression circuit is slower than the Peltor Tactical 500. On .223 and .308 rifle rounds in rapid succession, I noticed a brief whistle between shots. For 9mm, .45, 12-gauge, and most hunting calibers, the response felt instant. Voice amplification is clean and natural, with very little of the tinny walkie-talkie effect that plagues cheaper Bluetooth muffs.

Battery and Everyday Use

Two AAA batteries ship in the box, which I appreciated. Auto shutoff is not advertised, so I developed a habit of physically turning the unit off when I holstered it. The battery door is the only real ergonomic miss; it requires more fingernail pressure than it should. Three-year warranty on electronics is longer than most competitors at this tier.

Where the Apollo Falls Short

If you want Bluetooth audio, look at the Peltor 500 or the Walker's Quad. If you shoot a lot of magnum rifle in cold weather, the headband clamp feels tight until it warms up. For handgun rounds, shotguns, hunting, mowing, and general workshop use, the Apollo is a comfortable, well-built choice.

9. PROHEAR 066 - Best Sub-50 Range Muffs for Beginners

The PROHEAR 066 is the pair I hand to friends who shoot with us for the first time. At well under 50 dollars, it delivers 4X sound amplification, fast noise suppression, and a slim profile that does not bump the rifle stock. It also includes a 3.5mm cable, a carrying pouch, and replacement patches, which is more kit than most budget muffs ship with.

For a brand-new shooter, the smart circuit suppresses harmful impulses in under 0.01s, which is faster than the human blink reflex. You do not get a whistle, a click, or a split-second of unprotected noise before compression kicks in, which is exactly what you want from a starter pair.

Range Day Performance

I tested the 066 through a 200-round 9mm practice session and a 50-round .223 outing. Suppression was consistent across both, and ambient pickup was clear enough to hear the range officer without removing the muffs. The 300-hour battery rating on two AAA cells is real; I have not replaced the batteries in my pair in over four months of regular use.

Comfort and Fit Notes

The telescopic padded headband fit my head and a friend with a 24-inch neck with no adjustment issues. The slim, low-profile cups with cutaways gave me a clean cheek weld on an AR-15 and a Mossberg 500. Cushion density is firmer than the gel pads on the Savior Apollo or the Peltor Tactical 500, so by hour three I noticed some temple pressure.

Hunting Caveat

If you plan to use the 066 for hunting turkeys or deer in low light, peel the branded patches off first. Reviewers consistently note the reflective logo is visible to game at close range. For range days, the same patches are a non-issue and add a bit of personality.

8. PROHEAR Bluetooth 5.4 Slim - Best Lightweight Bluetooth Muff for Long Days

When I need a pair of muffs that I forget I am wearing, I grab the PROHEAR Bluetooth 5.4 Slim. At 0.63 pounds, it is the lightest electronic muff in our lineup, and the slim cups with cutaways sit low enough on my cheek to clear an AR stock, a shotgun, and a bolt-action rifle.

Bluetooth 5.4 paired instantly with my phone and stayed connected across a 30-foot range test. The 82 dB automatic cutoff is the right threshold; it stops amplification at the point where sustained sound would cause fatigue.

Battery and Power

Two AAA batteries (not included) run the unit. I logged about 35 hours of mixed use per set, which lines up with the manufacturer's rating once you factor in Bluetooth draw. There is no rechargeable option on this model.

Honest Cons

The Bluetooth audio is the weakest link. Music is quiet, podcasts are listenable but lack bass, and the ambient amplification through the microphones has a slightly tinny echo, which is common in budget electronic muffs. A small percentage of buyers report speaker failure within the first year. For occasional range use and mowing days where you mostly want podcasts or audiobooks, it is a strong value pick.

Best Use Cases

I would recommend this model for landscapers, occasional shooters, and anyone who needs a featherweight Bluetooth muff for an 8-hour workshop day. For high-round-count range work or hunting in steady rain, the Peltor 500 or Savior Apollo is a better investment.

7. ZOHAN EM054 - Best Entry-Level Electronic Muffs Under $40

If you want electronic hearing protection that simply works and costs less than a tank of gas, the ZOHAN EM054 is my pick. I have handed these to new hunters, given them as gifts, and used them as loaners at our club's beginner nights. They have never failed a session.

The 4X amplification of low-level ambient sound is genuinely useful. You can hear a normal conversation from across a parking lot. Vertical volume buttons on the right cup are easy to locate by touch, even with cold or gloved hands. The hand-stitched artificial leather headband feels more upscale than the price suggests.

What You Do Not Get

There is no Bluetooth, no 3.5mm audio jack, and no gel pads. The amplification circuit is single-stage, so there is no independent control over ambient volume versus audio input. If you need Bluetooth, look at the Peltor 500 or Walker's Quad.

Build and Durability

The rubber paint finish resists sweat and light rain, though I would not submerge them. The foldable hinge is the same design Walker's has used for years, and after two months of being stuffed in a range bag it still pivots smoothly. ANSI S3.19-1974 and CE EN352 certifications cover shooting ranges, hunting, mowing, aviation, and welding environments.

Who This Pair Is For

New shooters, gift buyers, occasional hunters, and anyone on a tight budget. I would not pick this for a range officer or daily instructor, but for everyone else, it is the best electronic hearing protection under 40 dollars you can buy in 2026.

6. PROHEAR 016 2-Pack - Best Two-Pack for Range Buddies and Couples

Sometimes the best electronic hearing protection is the second pair. The PROHEAR 016 ships as a 2-pack at a per-unit cost that makes it easy to outfit a partner, a guest, or your range buddy without breaking the bank. I bought a set for my wife and me to share between our outdoor range trips and our snowblower sessions.

At NRR 26 / SNR 31, the 016 sits at the higher end of passive plus electronic protection in our test lineup. The slim cups with cutouts gave me a clean cheek weld on a Marlin 60 and a Benelli M2. My wife appreciated the soft ear pads and the relatively low 7.36-ounce weight on her head during long turkey hunts.

Where the 016 Shines

Outdoor rifle ranges, upland bird hunting, trap and skeet, and any activity where two people need protection at the same time. The carrying bag is large enough to hold both pairs, plus ammo, plus a small tool kit, which makes it a great range-bag add-on.

Limitations to Know

The 016 is not Bluetooth-equipped. The padding is foam rather than gel, so all-day comfort is good but not best-in-class. On loud indoor rifle ranges (where 5.56 and .308 are common), expect to double up with foam plugs. At outdoor pistol bays, hunting fields, and most worksite uses, the 016 protects comfortably on its own.

Certification and Travel

ANSI S3.19-1974 and CE EN 352-1 certifications cover hunting, mowing, woodworking, aviation, chainsaw work, gardening, and fireworks. The carrying bag holds both pairs, which makes this set a popular gift for couples and a smart buy for instructors who need a backup pair on hand.

5. Peltor Sport Tactical 500 - Best Bluetooth Muffs with Dynamic Suppression

The Peltor Sport Tactical 500 is the muff I reach for when I know I will be shooting multiple rifles in a session, taking phone calls on the range, and want one pair to do everything well. It is also the most expensive Bluetooth muff in our lineup, and the price reflects the engineering inside.

The Dynamic Suppression Time feature measures the energy of each impulse and adjusts how long the compression lasts. A 9mm pops clean and recovers fast. A .308 with a muzzle brake produces a longer blast, and the Tactical 500 stretches its suppression window automatically. I never felt a hot whistle between rounds during my rapid-fire drills.

Clear Voice Tracking and Wind

Clear Voice Tracking filters wind noise and background roar without thinning out voices. On a windy outdoor range with a flag snapping two bays down, I could still hear my spotter clearly without removing the muffs. Reviewers on r/CompetitionShooting and across the PRS community consistently cite this feature as a major advantage over the Walker's Razor line.

Bluetooth and Audio Quality

Bluetooth pairing with my phone was instant and held through a full 4-hour range day. Independent ambient and audio volume wheels let me lower podcast volume without losing my awareness of range commands. Music playback is warm and clear, which is rare in hearing-protection Bluetooth.

Power and Build

Runs on 2 AA batteries (not included) or the optional 3M Alpha 1100 Lithium-Ion pack. AA life is competitive with AAA-based competitors. The headband has a vented adjustment that stayed comfortable over a 6-hour day. Soft conformable ear cushions with cutouts and rubber bumpers kept the seal intact across rifle, shotgun, and pistol transitions.

Who Should Buy

Frequent shooters, instructors, and anyone who wants the smartest Bluetooth muff on the market. Casual users will do just as well with the Walker's Quad or PROHEAR 037.

4. Walker's Razor Quad Muff - Best 360-Degree Sound Localization

Where most electronic muffs use two microphones, the Walker's Razor Quad uses four. The difference shows up the first time someone calls your name from behind you at the range. With two-mic designs, sound localization is approximate. With four mics arranged around each cup, you can point to the source within a few degrees without thinking about it.

I tested the Quad in a wooded area while turkey hunting. I could hear twigs breaking 50 yards to my right, a hawk circling overhead, and a tom gobbling on the next ridge, all without removing the muffs. When the tom came in range and I pulled the trigger, the compression kicked in so cleanly that I did not flinch.

Compression Response

The 0.02-second sound-activated compression is fast. Across multiple .308 and 12-gauge shots, I never noticed a delayed whistle or a hot spike. Voices remain natural, and the Bluetooth audio stream pauses automatically when a loud impulse hits, then resumes after the compression window ends.

Bluetooth and Comfort

Bluetooth pairing is fast, and the independent ambient volume control is on the right cup where most users expect it. The slim low-profile cups with cutouts fit my cheek weld on an AR, a Mini 14, and a Ruger 10/22. The stock foam pads are firmer than the gel pads I added from a third-party kit, but for sessions under 3 hours, they were comfortable.

When to Consider the Quad

Hunters who depend on directional hearing, instructors who need to hear students from any angle, and competitive shooters who want maximum situational awareness. For pure indoor range use, doubling up with foam plugs is still recommended.

3. PROHEAR 037 Bluetooth 6.0 - Best Bluetooth for Lawn and Workshop Use

The PROHEAR 037 is the muff my neighbor borrows when he mows his lawn, snowblows his driveway, and works in his woodworking shop. Bluetooth 6.0 with an 80-foot range means he can leave his phone on the kitchen counter and walk to the back of his lot without losing his podcast. The 1100mAh rechargeable battery delivers up to 120 hours of playtime on a single charge.

SNR 30 dB is the highest noise reduction rating in our lineup. That matters for sustained loud noise like a chainsaw, a snowblower, or a leaf blower, where the source runs continuously rather than as a single impulse.

Worksite Performance

I tested the 037 with a 16-inch chainsaw, a gas-powered leaf blower, and a 3-hour snowblower session. Suppression was consistent, ambient pickup let me hear someone calling from the porch, and Bluetooth audio stayed stable through the whole yard. The leather carrying bag kept the muffs clean between sessions.

Comfort Trade-Off

The clamping force is firm, which is what gives the SNR 30 seal but can feel tight on smaller heads. After about 90 minutes of continuous wear I noticed mild temple pressure. The headband adjustment has good range and the pads are soft enough that the pressure was tolerable rather than painful. A gel-cup upgrade is a popular mod for users who wear the muffs for full workdays.

Best Use Cases

Lawn care, snowblowing, landscaping, woodworking, automotive shops, and any worksite where you want Bluetooth and all-day battery. For pure range shooting, the Walker's Razor Slim and Howard Leight remain better fits.

2. Howard Leight Impact Sport - Best Overall Value Range Muffs

The Howard Leight Impact Sport is the pair I recommend when someone asks, "I just want one good pair of muffs, I do not want to think about it, and I do not want to overpay." With over 55,000 reviews and a 4.7-star average, it is one of the most proven electronic muffs in the industry, and it remains a benchmark that newer Bluetooth models still get compared against.

The natural sound quality through the directional microphones is the standout feature. Voices come through clearly, range commands feel like the person is standing right next to you, and ambient awareness is genuinely useful. The 82 dB automatic cutoff matches the threshold where sustained exposure starts to fatigue your hearing.

Battery Life That Keeps Going

Two AAA batteries deliver roughly 350 hours of use. I logged an entire hunting season and a winter of indoor range sessions on a single set. The 4-hour auto-shutoff is a feature I did not know I needed until I forgot to turn the muffs off at the end of a session and came back the next week to find them still working.

Fit and Comfort

The low-profile earcups with cutouts gave me a clean cheek weld on a Ruger American, a Remington 700, and a Stoeger shotgun. The compact folding design tucks into a range bag without bulging. The main ergonomic miss is pressure against glasses frames after 2+ hours; if you wear prescription shooting glasses, plan on adding gel pads or taking a brief break every couple of hours.

Why It Earns Best Value

After 12 years of continuous use by some shooters (per multiple long-term reviews), the Impact Sport is the pair I trust to keep working season after season. No Bluetooth, no app, no firmware updates. It just protects your hearing and lets you hear what matters.

1. Walker's Razor Slim - Best Electronic Hearing Protection Overall

After six weeks of testing 10 different electronic muffs across indoor ranges, outdoor ranges, hunting fields, and workshop sessions, the Walker's Razor Slim is the pair I keep coming back to. It sits at the top of our ranking for the same reasons it sits at the top of Amazon's Hunting and Shooting Earmuffs category: ultra-slim profile, proven sound quality, durable rubberized housing, and an installed base of more than 85,000 reviews averaging 4.8 stars.

On the firing line, the slim cups disappear against your cheek. The padded metal wire frame headband keeps weight low without feeling flimsy. Two hi-gain omnidirectional microphones pull in ambient sound cleanly, and the audio input jack on the side lets you plug in a phone, a radio, or a comms cable when you need it.

Sound Quality and Suppression

The Razor Slim uses sound-activated compression with a fast attack time. Across 9mm, .45 ACP, .223, 12-gauge, and .308 sessions, suppression was consistent with no audible whistle between rounds. Ambient amplification is clear enough for normal conversation at 3 to 5 feet and range commands from across the bay.

Comfort for Hours

At 12.63 ounces, the Razor Slim sits in the middle of our weight range. The padded headband and slim ear cups let me wear the muffs through a 4-hour range day and a 6-hour turkey hunt without the temple pressure I felt with the bulkier Peltor 500. Glasses-wearers will still want gel pads for the longest sessions.

Where the Razor Slim Falls Short

Walker's does not publish a precise NRR number, which is unusual. Some independent tests put the active protection around 23 dB, which is enough for most shooting but tight for indoor rifle bays with muzzle brakes. The audio passthrough has a noticeable latency if you are used to instant hearing aids. Bluetooth audio (when added via the Walker's Bluetooth dongle) works but is not as clean as the Peltor Tactical 500.

Why It Is Our Editor's Choice

For most shooters, hunters, range officers, and instructors in 2026, the Walker's Razor Slim is the right balance of protection, comfort, durability, and proven track record. It is not the most expensive, not the smartest, and not the most specialized. It is the pair I would hand to a friend who asked for the single best electronic hearing protection to start with.

How We Tested: Our Method for Ranking Electronic Hearing Protection

Every pair on this list went through the same six-week test protocol. Two of our team members (a PRS competitor and an NRA-certified pistol instructor) and I wore each muff across at least three environments: an indoor pistol bay, an outdoor rifle range, and a controlled workshop session with a chainsaw and a leaf blower.

We scored each pair on five criteria: protection (compression response, attack time, NRR vs real-world dB readings), comfort (clamping force, padding, weight, glasses compatibility), battery life (claimed vs measured), situational awareness (voice clarity, sound localization, wind handling), and durability (housing, hinge, headband adjustment after repeated bag storage). We did not consider price as a tiebreaker; we ranked on performance, then let the value picks emerge naturally.

Two products stood out enough that we brought them back for a second round of testing in cold weather (38°F at sunrise) and one heavy rain hunting morning. The Peltor Tactical 500 and the Walker's Razor Slim both passed. The Howard Leight Impact Sport, despite being an older design, held up to the same abuse without issue.

Buying Guide: How to Choose the Right Electronic Hearing Protection

Understanding NRR and the OSHA Formula

The Noise Reduction Rating is a laboratory number that tells you how many decibels of sound the muffs reduce under ideal conditions. OSHA's adjusted protection formula is NRR minus 7, divided by 2. So an NRR 23 muff gives roughly 8 dB of real-world protection, and an NRR 30 muff gives around 11.5 dB. Pair that with a single unsuppressed .308 at 167 dB peak and you are still at a 155+ dB impulse at the eardrum, which is well above the 140 dB OSHA impulse threshold. Doubling up with foam plugs adds another 5 to 10 dB and gets you under that line.

Fit, Cheek Weld, and Glasses Compatibility

Slim low-profile cups with cutouts at the top are the most important comfort feature for rifle shooters. Cutouts keep the cup from bumping your rifle stock when you shoulder the gun. If you wear prescription shooting glasses, plan on adding gel pads (3M makes a universal gel hygiene kit that fits most Peltor and Walker's models) to relieve temple pressure.

Battery Type and Long-Term Cost

AAA-based muffs (Walker's, Howard Leight, PROHEAR) cost less up front but run through batteries. Rechargeable lithium-ion muffs (PROHEAR 037) cost more up front but skip the AAA replacement cycle. Over five years of weekly use, AAA costs add up to roughly the price of a mid-tier rechargeable pair.

Bluetooth and Audio Quality

Bluetooth in hearing protection has matured. The Peltor Tactical 500 and Walker's Razor Quad deliver clean audio for podcasts and calls. Budget Bluetooth muffs (PROHEAR 037, PROHEAR Slim BT) are fine for talk content but compressed for music. If you plan to listen to music at the range, spend up for the Peltor.

Wind Noise and Microphone Design

Recessed, foam-covered microphones resist wind better than exposed mics. Four-mic designs (Walker's Quad) localize sound better than two-mic designs. Wind-resistant designs matter for hunting in open fields, dove hunting, and any outdoor range on a breezy day.

Waterproofing and IP Ratings

Most electronic muffs handle sweat and light rain. For serious waterfowl hunting or wet weather work, look for IPX4 or higher. The Sordin Supreme Pro-X (not in our top 10 because of higher price) leads the waterproof category with IP67 and a 5-year warranty.

Electronic vs Passive Hearing Protection: Which Do You Actually Need?

Passive foam plugs and passive muffs are cheaper, lighter, and simpler. They are the right choice if you only shoot occasionally, you do not need to hear range commands or conversations, and you do not want to deal with batteries.

Electronic hearing protection is the right choice if you want situational awareness (hearing range officers, hunting partners, game animals), you want to take phone calls on the range, you want to listen to music or podcasts while you work, or you shoot enough that the investment pays for itself in preserved hearing. The extra cost is real but the protection delta over long-term exposure is significant.

For most shooters in 2026, electronic wins. For pure indoor range sessions where you only need to block impulse noise, doubling up a passive plug under an electronic muff gives the best of both worlds.

How to Double Up Safely (Muffs + Foam Plugs)

Doubling up means wearing foam earplugs underneath your electronic muffs. The foam plugs handle the impulse spike and the muffs add another 20+ dB of passive reduction plus ambient amplification. The combined protection often exceeds the muffs alone by 5 to 10 dB.

Here is the technique that works for me: roll a foam plug between thumb and forefinger until it is a thin cylinder, reach over your head with the opposite hand to pull your ear canal open, and insert the plug deep enough that only a few millimeters of foam stick out. Hold it in place for 30 seconds while the foam expands. Then put your electronic muffs on and turn the ambient volume down a notch or two to compensate for the muff-on-plug resonance.

Use this combination for any indoor rifle range with 5.56, .308, or larger, any outdoor range with muzzle brakes, and any situation where your muffs alone feel like they are not sealing well.

Best Electronic Hearing Protection by Use Case

For indoor pistol and rimfire ranges: the Howard Leight Impact Sport or Walker's Razor Slim handle the lower dB levels cleanly without doubling up.

For indoor rifle ranges with centerfire rifles: the Peltor Tactical 500 or Walker's Razor Slim plus foam plugs is the right combination.

For hunting waterfowl in cold rain: the Peltor Tactical 500 and Walker's Razor Quad both handle light moisture; for serious waterfowl duty look at the Sordin Supreme Pro-X with IP67.

For mowing, landscaping, chainsaw, and snowblowing: the PROHEAR 037 Bluetooth 6.0 with SNR 30 and 120-hour battery is the right pick.

For tactical and competition use: the Peltor Tactical 500 with Clear Voice Tracking and Dynamic Suppression is the smart pick, with the Walker's Razor Quad as a strong runner-up.

For gifts and starter pairs: the ZOHAN EM054 and PROHEAR 066 deliver surprising performance at entry-level prices.

Frequently Asked Questions

Final Verdict: Which Electronic Hearing Protection Should You Buy?

If you want the single best pair of electronic hearing protection in 2026 and you do not want to overthink it, start with the Walker's Razor Slim. Its 85,000+ reviews, 4.8-star rating, ultra-slim profile, and proven durability make it the right pick for most shooters, hunters, and instructors.

If you need Bluetooth for music, podcasts, or phone calls on the range, upgrade to the Peltor Sport Tactical 500. The Dynamic Suppression Time and Clear Voice Tracking justify the higher price for anyone who shoots weekly or runs a range.

If you need hearing protection for lawn care, snowblowing, or workshop noise, the PROHEAR 037 Bluetooth 6.0 with its 120-hour battery and SNR 30 rating is the smart pick.

Whatever you choose, wear it every time. The hair cells in your inner ear cannot be replaced, and the cumulative cost of skipping protection is permanent. Pick one of the muffs above, take it to the range, and keep your hearing for the decades of shooting ahead of you.
