Wow! How does that cost break down? Curious. Bob


2.3 cents for a primer, I buy 10k at a time, half a cent for powder, free
boolits from wheel weights. I don't include cost for labor, equipment or
electricity. The biggest expense is range time at $12/hr. I print my own
targets on 4x6 shipping labels. My S&W Mod 19 will make one hole at 30
feet
from a rest. Off-hand, I will keep every round in the label even with my
S&W 442. I found out that the more I practice, the luckier I get.


Funny how that works, huh?

Egad, I have to re-up at the range and get some more time in this
year. I let it lapse for a year!
