I just can’t fathom paying these prices for 9mm when I was paying between 0.17-0.25 per round for winchester or federal target ammo a couple years ago. ---

Yep. .20 for target ammo was great. ---

Might be practicing today, but weather dependent. Still not so urgent to do so that weather can stop it, lol. ---

Since purchasing my .22 and shotgun, neither have been shot yet. It’s pretty sad. Going on at least a year with the shotgun and 2-3 yrs on the .22. ---

Don’t have the property, haven’t had anyone want to go out and shoot. Haven’t had a lot of time. Lots of reasons. My last 2 years have actually been pretty packed with things going on. Between a destination wedding and planning and honeymoon, pregnancy, baby, reception back home, getting the house in order, family gatherings… it’s been tough. ---

100%. Hoping to get out with my father in law at their families land in Arcade but it just hasn’t come together yet. Really would like to shoot some though. I am way out of the loop though on pricing for ammo and I’m sure it’s going to be a huge surprise when I see it. haha ---

Yeah, we have two kids, a dog, several race cars and my wife and I make sure we go shooting regularly. Don’t make excuses, make reasons. ---

Ha, I can find the time. It’s just not a lot of fun when every time I dump a 10rnd mag through my Glock 19 I’m throwing a $5 bill down range. Except it’s worse, because I can get $5 bills anywhere. Ammo I have to hunt for. ---

This is my problem too, I just would rather dump money elsewhere. I’ve shot PLENTY in the past and in a home invasion scenario I’m just dumping mags so whatever. In a civil war scenario I just need enough ammo to take yours. ---

Honest, I’m fairly new to this so it’s not something I’m going to be doing myself. I want to make sure when I do go it’s with someone who is willing to take the time to help me break down the guns, clean them, etc. I know how to load and shoot. lol ---

I got into reloading about 2 years before the shit show. Haven’t bought “ammo” since. Not as easy as handing over cash, but I have it when I need it. ![go_photo_1588005887966](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/9/e/9e1a194b3cf6c34455ad260752e9573fa4cc01e3.jpeg) ![20200511_141041](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/f/d/fdd088ee8d28ad2480269c99d215f785c440e6ee.jpeg) ![20190213_093625](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/a/3/a33b7d0aeaf91ca115999f846abffe5d4944e517.jpeg) ---

There is 9mm ammo for $0.32 shipped now… its not THAT crazy. Still is $5 a mag I suppose. Just limit the rapid fire. .22 ammo is still pretty dirt cheap, even at $50 for 500 its not going to break the bank to have an hour of fun. Best way to shoot well is to put lead down range. Still cheaper then golf. ---

So I was going to buy an air rifle for plinking with the kids, and stumbled across a good deal that accomplishes the same thing but is a little nicer - > **[MARK II F STAINLESS | RIMFIRE | SAVAGE ARMS](https://www.savagearms.com/content?p=firearms&a=product_summary&s=24700)** > > We know what it takes to build a truly reliable bolt gun, and we put all of it into our trusted Mark II Series.
