Hot lead is safer, eh?

In my book most every time yep!

I need to quit throwing those rocks since I have a lot of glass in my house but hopefully things will quiet down now that you know who is gone!

In bold, that's true because I feel popping in ear when someone shot the gun, especially if I'm closer to them.

I went to hunting with my family and feel popping several time when they shot the gun.

I have constant ear popping, usually during eat meal due to my allergy that where eustachian tube got swollen and it is very annoying.

Sorry to hear that. Wear ear protection and see if it helps. Hunting and shooting is fun!

just turning my hear aids off is fine. once they are off, nothing but dead silence. the ear moulds act as ear plugs that block any pressure or vibrations in...

Yeah, same here. When I was a kid on the farm, we would target shoot every night after supper....at clays...prior to the opening of pheasant, duck, etc seasons. My main gun at the time was the well-known Remington Model 870, 16 guage. However, occasionally, I'd go a few rounds with my Dad's double-barrelled 10 guage. It didn't hurt shooting it but you couldn't tell that by the multiple strips of black and blue on my shoulder.

My audiologist told me the same thing. My earmolds act better than earplugs.

I got a CZ-52 and working on getting a PPS-43C so I can get the cheap Bulgarian mil-surp ammo for two guns

1600 rounds for $320 - cant beat that.

Yup, my ENT specialist diagnosed me with obstructed eustachian tube and I have to take Sudafed (pseudoephedrine) on normal basis to open the path so popping in ear is gone.
