If it's 80% empty then you're bad at math.

No. I want to load a gun suitably for how it will be used. I have enough experience with all my guns to be confident that they will perform properly. Most indoor ranges do not allow carry conditions and exercises such as drawing from a holster. I use the range for target practice, not self defense practice.Yes, I'm going to load to full capacity when I carry and I want to duplicate carry conditions at the range. Don't you want to know your gun will run the same way you carry it in the wild?

Topped up mags +1 because that's the way I carry. Want to make sure they work from fully loaded and that the gun cycles reliably with full mag pressure on bottom of slide. Every time.

The waste of range time means nothing to me. I go to shoot 200 rounds. That is what is comfortable for me. The range charge is an hour minimum. It takes me about 45 minutes to shoot all my ammo including reloading right there on the line. So absolutely no waste of range time is involved. How am I going to benefit by buying 20 mags or so and pre-loading them?I get annoyed using range time to reload. What I have found myself doing a lot lately, is a lot of 2 rd mags. I practice drawing and doing a hammer, then reloading and doing another. It just seems to be more flowing that way.
