I responded to a thread about the Mini-14 and made the comment that I considered it expensive to rip off 200 rounds or more in an afternoon. My sense is that this is a light day for many here in terms of shooting. You add in shooting your favorite centerfire handguns and you just blew a couple $100 minimum. I doubt a majority of Americans can blow a few $100 in an afternoon just punching holes in things and not feel it financially.
Thought it a reasonable thread topic for folks to sound off on the shooting sport in general relative to the costs involved. I know that it's easy to shoot in one afternoon the total annual cost of my club membership. Shooting is not a cheap hobby. It is not golf, but it still costs.
What do you think? What is your typical day at the range? Do you ever really consider the cost?
