Hello, i think i may be in the minority here but here it goes, i shoot at least 4 cylinders a range sesson, i go to the range at least 4 days a week sometimes 5, so doing the math that equals to 384 rounds a month progaby a little more, at around 21 cents a round that comes to $80.64 a month, i got to either slow down shooting or start casting my own bullets, get a tap a cap, make my own black powder, the only one of the three things i can probaly do is the tap a cap, pghrich
 
I think you are talking about the old "Tap a Cap". They haven't been made in a while. If you can find some let me know. I'd love to have one.
 
None right now, when I get back to texas probably something to the tune of $50-100 worth a month. Got a lot of guns that need love though, most are black powder but a couple are fancy smokeless shooters.
 
Both wife and I Shoot Cowboy Action and Western 3 Gun twice a month, that's 200 rounds of .38 right there. Shoot the 25 yard bullseye range weekly for another 100+ rounds of .45, .38, and/or 9mm.

About 300+ rounds a month.
Love my LEE single stage press!
 
the most I shoot anymore is 4 shoots a month,so about 240 each of sixgun and carbine,and a few boxes of shotshells.
we have a Wed. night practice session at an indoor range where i'll shoot another 400 rounds a month.

dang good thing I reload,them 45's can get spendy real fast if not.
 
How many rounds a month do you shoot. Let me count the ways.

I have a membership to a club range located 30 minuets from my home. Being retired. I've set aside one day a week to enjoy one of my favorite hobby's. And while there are allowed to reload ammo in a facility built to accommodate us members who choose too. Having that privilege not only allows me to fine tune my weapons accuracy. It also increase's the amount of time I spend there. Thus I shoot more. I also rotate my weapons I take along on my range visits. One visit its Center fire Rifle time: 35-40 rds. Next visit it's: 3 or 4 rounds of Trap. Then on another visit I may feel the need to spark-up that Ol' Traditional Smoke Pole of mine. Black powder: I'll will burn thru 1/4 to 1/3 lb of Gorex 2FF pretty easy on a single trip. How many Balls I fire down range? Maybe around>20. Not much interest do I have anymore in handgun shooting. But in saying that. Doesn't suggest in any way I don't know how to use one._;)
 
About 100 rounds per SD gun per monthly range range trip. I don't reload and ammo has gotten too costly to do more than one range trip per month.
 
How many rounds a month?

Not as many as I'd like to, that's for sure.

I bet I'm putting 500 rounds down range a month, give or take.

When I take the AR out for a range trip it sure chews through ammo in a hurry. Those thirty round magazines combined with semi-auto are real money hogs.

:eek:
 
I'm better. I'm back at work and am getting stronger. I'm sure I could shoot a pistol now, I just haven't. The mere thought of firing a rifle right now makes me hurt tho. I've got to get on the ball with it soon tho cuz deer season is coming.
 
I went out yesterday and shot the 51 Navy. I had just gotten three chambers loaded when it started to rain. I went ahead and loaded the other three and shot my target. It was for a contest on another forum, best group at 25 yards offhand. I had a nice 1 5/8 group going but I guess my last two chambers got wet cuz those weren't as strong and went way high on the target
 
when i got into reloading. i put about 8000+ rounds down range in about 6 months. this was last year in the summer and this years summer. my range member ship expired and havent been blasting away lately.
 
I don't think that I could say that I shoot my .45 colt monthly. When I do eventually go shooting though I do shoot quite a few rounds. I guess I could shoot weekly if I rationed out my ammo better.
