$11K worth of hearing aids later and I'm barely able to hear nearby conversations in a noisy environment.
Despite that, I'd probably use a brake on an open mound, but a suppressor in a booth situation.
Just haven't tried to get a brake to suit the 308, that our mutual friend in Norfolk Road built for me.
Might get him to copy a brake for me.

What muffs did you have

I was spotting when greg was shooting his 50cal and was inline with blast and 40 rounds later my hearing wasnt damaged.
