Feets / Collection / My build 5 Boxes of Ammo?

Post image

Just got my PAL and 2 guns (Moist Nugget and Howa 1500 7.62x39). CFSC instructor said it takes 5 boxes of ammo to get good with a gun. Seems excessive imho...

Probably 5 boxes of 20/50 rounds. I know people who can easily shoot 500 rounds or more at a range day lol

I'm one of those people.

200-300 rounds of either 556 or 357mag, then a few hundred 22lr to finish the range day.

The guys who reload love it when I hit the range cause it's a ton of free brass
