If you have a brake, you cannot forget ear protection. I walked up on a group of pigs on the way back to camp. I had a 300 Win mag with a brake, I hit a pig on the run, but my right ear rang for a week.
Yep,I have a set of electronic ones I wear hunting. At the range I wear plugs and muffs and I am always careful to set up away from other club members and let them know I am shooting with a brake.
