    Sat down today and figured the increased cost of attending an out of town 3 day, 700 target registered shoot.

    Targets: $38 vs $32 last year
    Shells: $27 per 100 vs $20 I shoot reloads
    Gas: $2.90/gallon vs $1.90
    Hotel: $100/night vs $60

    Total cost this year $817 vs $576 last year

    I try to go out of town at least 6 times a year. It will cost $1500 more this year than last year. I can afford it and I will do it but I will still bitch. Bite me Joe Biden.

    if you don't flinch at the cost, the industry will continue to charge (all of us) high prices.
    send a message to the industry, not biden. don't pay it.
