At a range usually the headset, but will use both.
I used to use the cigarette butts as little kid when my father would bring me to the rifle range, other times it was balled cotton, it is better than nothing and my ear canals were probably smaller back then.
I am slightly deaf in one ear, but it got that way about 18 years ago from some jerk of a coronet player in some pub who thought it would be funny to blast his horn in my ear.
I think I probably now favor foam plugs because they are not a hassle to pack and they don't impede peripheral eyesight.
It would be good to know if someone nearby on the sides is doing something stupid, so I could act accordingly for safety.
