    Range targets are expensive.

    If I see a guy run a target out, empty a magazine or two at it, then reel it in and replace I'm like "Oh... rich guy."

    I just use copies of targets online. Still I like the shoot and see best.

    This. Anything under about 50 yards is a printed target. Farther out I use the shoot-n-see stickers on cardboard.

    Unfortunately, my vision is such that I need 'splatter' targets at anything >10 yards to see WTF I'm doing. Those don't be come cheap.

    I would have kept better records and kept ammo logged and consolidated better.
    By the time I decided I needed to .... it was well ahead of me and playing catch up sucked.
