    Hi Alex

    In your situation I'd get the Howard Leight Impact Sports. $34 on Amazon last I checked. It is a #1 seller and offers decent NRR, fit, and electronic amplification at a good price point:

    Another good pair that fits in your budget are the Peltor Sport Rangeguards. I have a pair, and while I haven't used them heavily yet, seem to be working great for me so far. A few others have said positive things about them as well. They're worth considering at least.

    Your first Amazon link does not have the RangeGuard model as a result. Once again I'll recommend that set from Peltor/3M. The first result on your link was the Peltor/3M Tactical 100. While there are some very minor differences (ie black v. grey, different styling on the headband) for all practical purposes they are the same, except the Tactical 100 cost $20 more.

    Bottom line these are listed in descending order of both price and quality.
    The Caldwells work OK, pain in the butt to change batteries, may not age well.
    The Howard Leights have an exterior battery compartment and they sell replacement ear cups.
    The Peltors were the original electronic ear muffs, and are now readily available for about a third the price they were. (Back when the Caldwells were "cheap", they ran about twice what they do now, for a mono-only version! The Peltors were about $200 back then!)
