Me too....regarding the cheek weld issue. I have the same Walkers and they are ok. I also have a pair of Leights that are garbage now. The plastic used in the ear pieces has turned hard. So hard that it’s impossible to get a good seal around the ears.
What you want is a pair of MSA’s. Their ear pieces are gel filled and they are comfortable as the dickens. Zero issues whatsoever. They are expensive..about $250. Buy once, cry once.
Yep, get MSA or Peltor.
Both are designed to be worn 8 hours a day by industrial workers, so they are designed to be really comfortable.
Even more important, both companies have very good hearing protection and both have a long list of independent certifications that show how good they are. Many "shooting brands" do not meet their claimed level of protection when tested according to industrial standards (or if they do reach that particular level of protection, they may not do so after a lot of wear.
Both Peltor and MSA sell cheap "rebuild" or "sanitary" kits with new earpads, foam linings, etc. that allow them to meet their certified levels of protection years and years later. Try that with a gunstore brand!
Like Goodogs57 writes, buy once cry once!The only muffs that didn't interfere with stock weld AND were comfortable for me were Peltor. Been using them for more than a decade - happily!
