Glad to hear that you are protecting your eyes and ears, you can't replace either of them if you lose them.

Peltor Ultimate 10 muffs are a great bargin and IIRC have a noise Reduction Rating of 29, one of the highest in the business. They are around $20 or so.

Electronic muffs that cut out the gunshot but let you hear your range partners or the range officer as very nice too. Look at walker and Pro ears. Howard leight makes very nice ones for the money.

I use the regular old smith and wesson shooting glasses, they are betwwen 20 and $30.

I also use regular safety prescription glasses with side shields.

For louder rifles and pistols I use ear plugs and muffs at the same time - we call it 'doubling up' and it really takes the edge off bigger calibers.
Hope this helps.
