Default How often do you shoot?

How many rounds do you put down range a year?

Default Re: How often do you shoot?

Approx 4K +/- 1K pending on if I take any classes that year or if I get something new to play with.


Edited to add: That's just .45. I don't keep tabs on .22LR, .38spcl, or 9mm (yet)


I need to shoot my M4gery more.

Default Re: How often do you shoot?

Figure I'm at the range at least twice a month and probably put 200 down range per visit.
So, 200 x 26 = 5200. That's a rough estimate.

I would say I usually average around 6K. Naw, doesn't mean you have to get to the range more knighthawk. We're literally burning money, lol, I guess it depends how much you want to burn.

Well like a lot of people I live paycheck to paycheck so I do hit the range at least once a month! Twice if I can afford it and convince the boss it is a nesc. expendature.

No more so then say, going to the bar, out to eat, or taking weekend drives.

I go to the range about once a week during the winter and about twice a month in the summer (riding season), each range visit about 250 - 300 rounds if I have my rifle and three handguns with me.

I count it as recreation, I don't drink or drug. I also look at it as a great stress reliever, not to mention staying sharp with my guns.
