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

With two 22LR rifles with me, at least a brick per outing. With an SKS and/or 5.56 Renegade, 100 each, min.

I buy cases and crates, the cheaper the better. Lots of reps.
