I'll tell you this; I don't believe a man who has children has any business shooting at the level you're talking about, even if he can afford it.
Dang, I didn't realize I was being immoral. Oh well, back to more conventional pursuits like drinkin' and ho's.
Guys that shoot 100K rounds or more a year either make money at it or are trying to make money at it. Free ammo and paid to shoot, kinda like being a gunwriter without having to actually write anything. My point stands regarding "try that [200K rounds] with a 1911" - the guys that shoot that much overwhelmingly use 1911's.
I never put up those kinds of totals. There were years I reloaded around 50K rounds, but I would account for a half to two-thirds of the empties. Firing 25K rounds would cost me around $50 a week. That's not chicken feed, but it's a lot cheaper than a new bass boat.
