Hearing loss is a real danger for those of us who enjoy shooting. While it may seem like a “down the road” problem, it is something that you must be diligent about. A company that understands this need is Shellshock Protection. Today, they are releasing their newest ear Pro, the EXO Pro Elite.

Situational Awareness
“The EXO Pro Elite was developed to address the most common frustrations shooters experience with traditional hearing protection,” said Eric Hung, owner of ShellShock Protection. “Many electronic earmuffs force users to compromise between protection, comfort, and situational awareness. We set out to eliminate those tradeoffs and create a product that delivers premium performance without the premium price tag.”
The EXO Pro Elite introduces several key enhancements, including:
- Upgraded certified protection with a 23 NRR / 28 SNR rating
- Enhanced audio clarity with cleaner, more natural sound reproduction
- Improved noise compression for faster suppression of harmful impulse noise
- Redesigned battery compartment for easier operation while wearing gloves
- Refined ear cup design for a more consistent and secure seal
- Smart auto shutoff functionality to preserve battery life
- Reinforced durability for demanding range environments
The result is a hearing protection solution that allows shooters to stay protected while maintaining clear communication and situational awareness.

ANSI-Tested Noise Reduction Rating
ShellShock Protection prides itself on certified protection that shooters of all kinds can trust. Unlike many electronic earmuffs that rely on estimated or unverified ratings, the EXO Pro Elite has been tested to recognized safety standards and features both ANSI-tested Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) certification and internationally recognized SNR certification. This commitment to verified performance reflects ShellShock Protection’s focus on transparency, reliability, and user safety.
The EXO Pro Elite is built for real-world range performance, combining advanced protection with features shooters need most. These key features include:
