Whatever you choose make sure they offer the highest noise reduction possible. Many models only offer 21db or so noise reduction. That is not alot when your firearm can be putting out 140+ not to mention the person on either side of you. Do that in an indoor range for a couple of hours and your hearing can be affected.
