how often do you go shooting?

[crazyXgerman]

inspired by a few other threads, i'm wondering, how often do you typically go shooting ?

 

[Malice]

Every other weekend, religiously, sometimes more.

Every other Wednesday.

Sometimes not for a month or two (not counting a few rounds in the backyard-rural area) in bad weather. Couple times a month in better weather, not nearly enough.

NEVER enough!!!!

Time, weather and finance all have their effect. Currently in winter - try to manage a bowling pin shoot weekly - in summer months try to sneak off to range any old time - I can swing it!!

I get the itch to go at least once a week, so I just put together my ammo box and gear and I'm out the door, weather and ammo permitting Don't have to worry about range fees since we belong to a sportsmans club now....all you need is the code. Nice thing to is it is just a few minutes cruise down the street.

I sure would love to just grab my pistol and walk out into the backyard to a range setup area....but that would require land

 

[WhoKnowsWho]

Trying to go every other weekend now that my wife and I have corresponding Sundays off. Though, the ammo supply is getting low, gotta roll out the reloading bench soon. It was packed away for Christmas get togethers.

once or twice a week, weather permiting.

I try to go at least every other day. Well, I have a rule that I have to handle a gun every single day....if it's only dry fire or just some simple sight pictures that is acceptable.

Luckily, I work on a military installation that still has a couple skeet fields along with a 100 yard pistol range. Sometimes it's skeet, sometimes it's pistol and on my days off it's both. I almost always have the place to myself also. Makes it very easy to shoot all the time.

Twice a week.

 

[PMDW]

Up from twice a year to every monday.

Working at a gun store rocks.

 

[Dmack_901]

about 8 times a year for me, but that's only because the law won't allow me to go on my own. (age < 18)



edit: Not enough is assumed, right?

 

[psyopspec]

During winter, maybe twice/month, with a lot of dry drills such as presentation & reloading. Warmer months are typically once or twice each week.

 

[landon74]

There wasn't a choice for 'not often enough'.....

 

[chickenfried]

I think about going about 3 times a week . But I only make it out about 3 times a month .

 

[P5 Guy]

I try to go to the range every other week, but I wish I could shoot more often.

 

[357Texas]

Very little

Only about 1 or 2 times a week on thr and or fri. rain don't matter I can shoot at an indoor or outdoors range.

Maybe 8 times in a year ...I am joinging a gun club that is about 5 miles from me next month.Im planing on going 2 times a week min.

Hell I own 2 guns that i have never even shot. m44 and a moss 500

 

[Duke of Lawnchair]

Once a week for me.

If not once a week, every other week.

 

[Edmond]

I haven't shot a gun in 6 months! I just haven't had the right combination of time, desire and money.

But once I start reloading, the only thing I will have to worry about is time because the lack of money sapped my desire.

 

[M2 Carbine]

Got a couple backyard ranges and I'm retired.
Most days I'll at least pick up a pistol and run a few magazines through it.
I just bought a 45acp Bond Derringer that I want to get used to so I loaded about 800 rounds for it and have shot it 10 of the last 12 days.

 

[Darkmind]

I live right down the road from the place I shoot at so I go about two too three times a week.

 

[unixguy]

too dark, too cold, too tired

I'm looking forward to it being light later in the afternoon now-- between long hours during the week and then needing to get other stuff done on the weekends, shooting has not been getting done. I think I've actually been shooting at least 9 times in the last year at my range, and probably twice at some others. The problem is that the distribution of those shooting sessions is heavily loaded at the first half of the last 12 months.

(Yeah, I realize I'm being a baby with all my excuses.) :/

 

[DelayedReaction]

Once a week. If my budget could permit it, I would easily go twice a week or more.

 

[Sparks]

I try to get range time every week, but it doesn't always work out. I dry-fire every day though. It was a lot better a year or two ago - training every day on the range for a year or so, set lots of personal bests and so forth.
