How often do you shoot

[Sydney Monk]

How often do you shoot and, on average, how many pellets do you use a month?

 

[Hateful McNasty]

Daily.. weather dependent on how much . Good clear weeks a 500 tin worth easy about every 10 days+/-

That will keep you in practice!

I shoot 1 gun every morning until I run out of air. Except the Red Wolf which take multiple sessions before I need to refill.

Sounds like a great way to start the day!

Ya but wether or not that equals any improvement is yet to be determined.

Daily. I started a few months ago. Usually two mags, sometimes only one or two. Having NV on two rifles helps when the days get shorter. Also having a 10m indoor at work helps a lot. I enjoy some shooting lunches.

Any shooting is good shooting!

I'm jealous of some of you guys who shoot nearly every day. Here I am an old retired guy and I can't find the time to shoot more than about weekly. At least tomorrows my day. Orv.

Daily. I average about two tins a day, so about 200 pellets. Two hour session in the morning, then job out doing house upkeep while taking care of three German shepherds snd one lab keeps me busy. Then another two hours into the evening before the sun goes down. I look forward to the shooting time, as I’ll go crazy if I just do work.
On days when I physically cannot do any chores due to pain I’ll throw in a third session mid day when the wind is at its strongest. So those days that’s 3 tins, or 300 shots.

I shoot almost every evening weather permitting. Do have the luxury of have a small range in the backyard. Also have about 20’ in the basement to shoot pistols. I shoot 60-80 pellets a session sometime more.

i like to shoot daily althugh this time of year i dont always get the chance.

 

[Farmplinker2]

Every couple days, usually between 1-2 dozen pellets.

 

[PasadenaMike]

Once a week now. I pick a gun of the week and will take it out either hunting or just shooting paper.

 

[FL22]

Shoot every chance I get . Typically I buy 4 or so cans of pellets a month to replenish my supply.

Not nearly often enough lol. I’m in the beginning stages of working on a basic setup for the backyard, but that only gets me ~20y, which I suppose is “enough” for general plinking. Once I have that figured out I’ll probably keep it down to once or twice a week so I don’t annoy the neighbors too much, but as of right now it’s probably every other week. I’m gonna try to sneak out of work a little early once a week until the sun starts setting too soon, but we’ll see how well that works out lol.

I’m planning to start doing some pest control at work as well, but really need to speak with DNR/G&F first to make sure I’m doing things within the confines of the law here. That should allow me to get some light shooting/pesting in a time or two a week, I think.

Sometimes a couple of times a day, some months I go through 1500 pellets, some months I don't use any.

Most days during decent weather. Now as an older type, if the wind is too cold I probably won’t. Unless I shoot out of my shed on a short range. Also it depends on my shoulder pain for breaking barrel.
