How much shooting do you do?

#1 Post by GRSporth1 »

I typically go shooting once/twice a week, typically about 12,000 rounds/year
Mostly pistol calibre rifle and long barrel hand-cannons.

I imagine its going to vary depending on the type of shooting you do?

I'm not running a survey or anything like that, just curious.

Once a week or twice if I do pest control. On for 4 days in a row if I go out this evening.

Clays at my local place every fortnight, as a guest at other places once a month/every other month and then a few annual big shoots (got the Lambton Estate flush shoot coming up at the end of the month :shakeshout: )

Practical shotgun once a month at my local club, once a month at either Crocketford or Carlisle and then 3-4 times a year darn saarrf (got a Level 3 comp in Northcotes on Saturday :shakeshout: :shakeshout: )

.22 and gallery rifle plinking once a month and low level comps every other month

Full-bore rifle plinking once a month/every other month. There's no competitions (that i'm aware of) up here so plinking is all i've been up to with my .223 and .308 (This has been suffering as late due to spending my shooting budget on PSG comps).

Game shooting maybe once a year. I've been on a few deer stalks but its not something i do regularly

Pigeon control used to be at least once a week but i just can't seem to find the time now :bad:

So usually i'm doing some type of shooting at least once a week :good:

I'm with MisLisCer - Not Enough...

I do smallbore, once or twice per week. Prone TR competition or practice competition every wednesday and occassionally on a Monday or Friday I'll take out the HK416 and go for a blat.

Fullbore, well, I've been once so far this year, for a morning... I think I shot 40 rounds of .223 maybe? - Definitely not enough.

But I have 3 hobbies, Guns, Guitars, and Girls...

Seems this year is a Guitars kinda year... Always playing somewhere, never enough time to shoot. Add in a highly unreliable local fullbore range, and I'm stuffed. Can't wait for a free weekend to get to Bisley!
