That's a pretty worthless
That's a pretty worthless noise reduction rating for that price.
The 19 or 20 dB reduction is
The 19 or 20 dB reduction is typical for 'slim' profile hearing protection in this price range.
You are right is is not enough to protect your ears from high-powered rifle or indoor shooting ranges.
There are larger earmuffs that have more dB, but they get so big they interfere with using a rifle/shotgun stock.
To help protect your ears: wear a set of light earplugs underneath (like musicians earplugs) while using the electronic earmuffs with amplification turned-up. That way you are doubled-up on hearing protection get a total of about 31db or so but can still hear people talking.
