$35 on Amazon:

Howard Leight by Honeywell Impact Sport Sound Amplification Electronic Earmuff, Classic Green (R-01526) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001T7QJ9O..._u1gjybJ72ZBAJ

I bought a pair in 2013. Still work great.

FWIW I bought a set of Caldwell electronics for hunting. I was only concerned about one shot, and rain was a constant threat so I didn't want to trash expensive muffs. Amazingly they have survived two years or more. They do eat batteries at a high rate of speed. Questions of quality and short battery life would keep me from using them in a class or on an indoor range.

Get a 30 dB passive like Peltor Ultimate 10.

I am on my third pair of electronics - HL Pro - but still wear the lighter, cheaper, quieter passives more.

I actually like Caldwell electronic hearing muffs for hunting.

I definitely consider your suggestions before buying.

With that budget if you want electronic I would suggest getting the 3M/Peltor RageGuard. I have both those and the Howard Leight Impact Sport. the RangeGuard is superior in every way.

I would add that you should always double up on ear pro by wearing plugs with your ear muffs. Hearing is too easily damaged not to get the most hearing protection you can.

Electronic ear pro is only necessary when shooting with others (competition, training, etc). When going by yourself to practice get a good set of passive ear muffs that are inexpensive, but will off an additional 5-10 decibels of noise reduction over the various electronice headsets.

Welcome Alex.

Are you shooting indoors or outdoors? Are you using them for long periods of time (>2 hours). Are you shooting rifle, shotgun, pistol, revolver? What caliber?

Do you need to hear sounds or conversations around you (as in Instruction)? Do you normally wear a hat shooting?

Lastly, what is your budget?
