"We noticed that there were a lot of high end muffs out there with great technology and low priced muffs that lacked the features shooters desire. We developed a US-made muff with high-end features at a good price," said Brownells CEO Pete Brownell.

Brownells Pro Series muffs feature NRR 26 dB noise reduction with less than a 1.5-millisecond "attack time" to reduce the sound of loud noises to a safe 70 dB level. Sounds below 70 dB to pass through without being muffled, users hear range commands and normal conversation clearly.

These muffs are compact and lightweight with low-profile polymer earcups that angle in sharply to ensure plenty of clearance when shouldering long guns.

Multi-directional microphones provide 360 degrees of hearing, so there are no dead spots. Each earcup has an independent volume control and replaceable pro-leather ear seals for comfort and a quality sound seal. The cups fold neatly into the padded, adjustable headband for easy storage.

Common "N" size alkaline batteries, which are included, provide 200-hours minimum battery life. And, the headset automatically shuts off to preserve battery life.

The Brownells Pro Hearing Protector #080-000-922 is made in the USA, and regularly sells for $139.99.
