How often do you go shooting?

**arjohnson** · February 12th, 2017, 08:37 PM

I see lots of nice pics of lots of nice guns, so the question is, how often do you shoot?

I try and go at minimum once a week, sometimes more but it probably averages out to once a week. My average trip is normally between 50 to 300 rnds and sometimes more.

I have a few guns but I'll admit that there's a handful that gets shot the most, they all get some shooting time but I have my preferred guns that get plenty of use.

They are not all just picture posers

I was going about 1-2 times a week before I got the news that I am moving. I do a full on rotation of my firearms but I have this thing where I won't hold onto firearms I don't use often. Hope that wears off as I get older

My range time for the past 3 years has consisted exclusively of IDPA matches, except for a single trip to check out my new prescription shooting glasses under controlled conditions. Outside of a scheduling SNAFU yesterday I have averaged a match a week, at about 100 rounds each, since Memorial Day last year.

I was able to shoot weekly or more from 2007-2014 (including overseas time). But I haven't actually been shooting since September 2015. Things just haven't allowed it.

I do more photo shoots than anything.

God bless those who can afford to shoot as much as they want.
It's cheaper to buy guns than it is to shoot them these days.

I shoot more at different times of the year, but I probably get to the range 12-15 times a year. I also use the club I belong too, to shoot archery and fish with my 10 year old.

About once every 2 years.

Reloading helps, I have 4k 9mm projectiles I'm loading at the moment, with primers and powder it cost me about 130.00 per thousand to load. Obviously I shoot 9mm the most followed by 5.56.
