answ2. Very much more than you should expose your precious hearing to. One should wear hearing protectors when using a rifle regularly.

When you are in control of the shooting, some of the muscles of the ear alter the transmission ratio through the malleus and incus. This is where some of the control of the range of hearing comes from.

But these days there are impulse-activated hearing protectors, that offer some protection. But not as much as good ear muffs.
