I'm with Semisane - I love to tinker with loads, powders, bullets and such on paper to see if my rifle can be all it can be. Yeah it may cost some $$. But all hobies do - right?
I enjoy sighting in my hunting guns. I haven't even started with my Omega yet. However, by the time I have it worked out i'm done with paper targets.
I did trap shooting in the 70's, and made a pretty good living at it. Pretty fun way to make money. Although I did develop a flinch, and had to go to a release trigger. Al Timney was my gunsmith at the time, and I told him my trigger was sticking. He said.."you're flinching". I said.."the trigger is sticking". He was right.
I shoot CAS now, and that's fun, but expensive.
So, I do like target competition, but it has to have some action to it.
