So, I'm starting to get into shooting pretty heavily, so I figured I'd see if anyone else is. If so, what do you shoot? 

As of right now, I've just got my 5.56/.223 DPMS AR15, but I'm hoping to purchase an Aug A3 in the next year or so. I've got everything I want on my AR and am ready to start saving up for my next rifle. Is an Aug sensible? No. Do I care?  Not really 😄

I may enjoy my guns, but I'm not into it that much... ;)
Just buy some tanner it's and call it good.

Haha I'm actually looking into using some tannerite targets. I have to go to someone's personal range, though...  Stupid normal ranges don't like explosions.

Wait so you spend hundreds of dollars just to waste hundrds of dollars shooting bullets at a range? Do you at least hunt?

Can't hunt with an AR :P  Bought the AR mostly for prepping/anticipated price jump. It's a .loving. blast to shoot, too. The Aug will be the same deal. If I were to play it smart, I'd buy a shotgun for hunting and a pistol for concealed carrier, but rifles are just fun.  It's not a waste. It's like spending hundreds of dollars on cardboard to sit in a smelly room with other nerds and play games 😜

I believe they have tactical ranges where you run through a course shooting targets.

I'd kinda enjoy some of the more competition style shootin. I've got a ways to go, though. Still getting the AR broken in haha

At least when I spend hundreds of dollars on Magic, I don't have to spend hundreds of dollars on bullets :P

I don't tend to blow up my sleeves and send them flying at targets :P

Could be more fun that way haha

People generally go through sleeves a lot slower than bullets ;)

Depends. I've had two magazines for a month or so. If you're using ultra pros, you'd already have had to replace them :P

Lol.

Very close to true, I split something like 7 ultra pros day 1 of gp Boston. Then again how much did those magazines cost you? My ultra pros are a lot cheaper...

Dude, suck it up and buy some KMCs. Ultra Pros are the worst sleeves you can buy.
