Effective hearing protection is a core part of safe, responsible range work. Choosing protection that balances comfort, fit, and attenuation is essential for shooters and instructors who spend hours on the line and need consistent noise reduction without added bulk.

HOWARD LEIGHT Corded Ear Plugs are built for that balance. With a firm stem and tapered shape designed for proper insertion, these corded plugs make consistent placement fast and repeatable. The soft flange design creates a better seal in the ear canal, improving comfort for extended sessions. They come corded for retention, include a convenient carrying case, and deliver a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 27—offering solid protection for most range environments. Shop this product

Design and fit that matter

The firm stem is more than a convenience—it’s an insertion aid that helps users seat the tapered plug to the correct depth every time. That tapered shape follows the ear canal geometry, while the soft flange compresses to form a reliable seal. For shooters who switch between earmuffs and plugs or who need a low-profile solution under eye protection, this combination of features reduces variability in protection and improves comfort during long training blocks.

NRR 27: What to expect on the range

An NRR of 27 places these plugs in a practical range-oriented class of protection. While high-decibel rifle calibers and indoor pistol ranges can demand dual protection strategies, these plugs are effective for many outdoor ranges and as part of a layered approach (muffs plus plugs) when maximum attenuation is required. They are also handy for instructors who move between positions and need quick, reliable insertion.

Practical features and value

At $6.99, HOWARD LEIGHT Corded Ear Plugs offer cost-effective hearing protection with features commonly found in higher-priced options. The included carrying case protects cleanliness and makes them easy to keep with your kit.

Choosing and caring for your plugs

Use the firm stem for consistent insertion, replace plugs when the flange loses elasticity, and store them in the included case to extend life. For high-volume shooting or indoor ranges, consider using these plugs with over-ear protection for maximum attenuation.
