I've read that also. Has not been my experience. I hear of guys saying that the noise and blast is so bad with ear plugs or muffs in. I just find that hard to believe. Most of my guns have brakes and I shoot them with foam plugs, muffs and now electronic noise canceling ear plugs. I don't mean I use these all at the same time either. No guns are loud when I have hearing protection in from 300 RUM down to 6.5X47's. Sure is fun watching your bullets hit the gongs. So to each there own, if you like brakes then by all means use them. As far as guys doubling up and saying how loud brakes are with plugs in and muffs; never experienced that and have been around a number of different brakes.
