I always wear hearing protection when I'm just shooting. When I'm hunting, I don't. I have been planning on getting walkers game ear, but I have never got around to doing it.

Once when I was shooting my 460, I got my left thumb up to high by the cylinder. It blew a pretty good chunk off my thumb, be careful shooting that thing. In all my years of shooting that was one of my dumbest things to do.[X(]
