Hadn't popped cap in a while so some friends and I went shooting a couple of Saturdays ago. We had a good time shooting rifles and pistols for several hours.
After we finished and were packing up I couldn't help but stare at the big pile of brass I made and all I could think of was how much it would cost to replace it, I obtained it many years ago for substantially less. It's almost a buck to replace one of the USGI 30 cal rounds.
Even reloading isn't that cheap anymore unless you're casting you own bullets. I hate to not shoot but I also hate that I can't replace my ammo without a bank loan.
How are ya'll coping with the expense of regular shooting? Are you shooting up your old stash or buying new to plink?
