Can even get different inserts for shooting etc. I think mine cost about $120.

Sorry to resurrect an old post but...

I'm starting officiating this fall and was practicing blowing my whistle/giving signals in our yard last night and realized that my ears were ringing after a while.

I looked at the website referenced for the ear plugs, since I too don't want to loose my hearing, and was wondering what type of filter(s) you had for the plugs you purchased.

Thanks in advance.
