    Shooting practice, how often

    How many times a week or month do you go to the range and practice your shooting skills. Like the old saying goes: Practice makes perfect.

      If I can't get any live fire into my schedule (matches serve that purpose too,) I squeeze in shooting at home in-between a FT job, kid's homework, my homework, and bass tournaments. Somewhere in that jumble, I may remember to clean the house

      However, no matter how busy I am, I seem to always find time to sneak onto CGN...

          About twice a month I get out to the range. Wish I could do more. I plan on getting a membership to an outdoor range so I can do holster work.

            I try to go at least once a week. That doesn't always happen, but if I have a surplus of plinking ammo and range fees, I have been known to go every couple/few days... its better to shoot 20rd once a week than 200rd once a month, imho.

              I try to go twice a month. I do mostly mid-range shooting, about 200-400 yards so I take my time. It don't just blast things... anymore...

                  I go about 2 times a month. Probably more after the semester ends. I dont call it practice I call it stress relief.

                          I have been going about once or twice a month. But I do practice a lot of dryfires at home to hone my trigger skills.

                              For the last 2.5 years I've only gotten to fire a gun once.

                              before that I went shooting every 6 months or so for 2 years, and before that I'd go once or twice a month.

                              *sigh*

                              city living sucks, I miss going every weekend to shoot on a buddies ranch.
