How will your range time change?

I'll be likely cutting back some of the high round count schools I was going to attend.

Worse comes to worse I'll be doing lots of dry fire and .22 shooting. I have quite a bit of .22 ammo to work with.

If as a family we slow down a little then we should be good for two years. By then the current administration will be completely embarrassed by their attempt at reducing the rights of the American public and will officially be a lame duck.

I'll take on archery.

Seriously, no changes. Last time I went through this in 2008, I had to shoot 45 rather than 9, so maybe that.

My competition schedule will take the biggest hit. Especially IPSC high round count matches.

I can maintain 90% of my skill level with dry fire and 50 rounds a week. That's good enough until the frenzy slows down.
Over the winter I usually slow down anyway since we have no indoor ranges and it gets dark so early (I'm on the mtn. time zone eastern border, its dark by 4:30pm).

I'll just spend more time on BJJ/MMA and my knife skills.

50% ammo tax...

I plan to visit a rabbi in PA who is trying to set me up with a nice Jewish girl...

Considering I'm picky, that may take a while...oh. Look!

Cabellas, Bass Pro & Gander Mountain!

Not going to change a bit. Worse comes to worst, I'll start reclaiming my lead. 45 brass lasts forever. And I have the capability of making primers.

Pics of primers when I get back into the office...

I'm your long lost son...I'm potty trained, do chores, do what I'm told and keep my mouth shut.

I learned my lesson in '08. Never again.

No changes this time around.

I would have to actually get range time for it to change any...

I plan to make the same number of range visits in 2013, but will shoot roughly half the center fire I did last year. Most transition, SHO and WHO practice will be with .22lr. I have enough components to get me halfway through the year, with the rest currently on backorder. I'm finding CCI Mini Mags hardest to find right now, which concerns me since running Steel Challenge with anything less is a crap shoot.

I will not cut back on USPSA or IDPA since they provide outdoor shooting oportunities so difficult to find in my area. Will shoot 2-3 matches of this type per month, but will shoot less Steel Challenge since it burns 2-4 times the ammo. Competing and training with high-level shooters has accelerated my progress, so running matches takes the highest priority in the near term.

Dry fire has become an increasingly important part of my training of late, and I will continue to do this 2-4 times per week.

Most of my class training was done in 2010 and 2011, with 2012 devoted to competition. A couple buddies and I hope to do a competition-oriented semi-private lesson with an area M or GM shooter.
