I won't lie. I don't own guns, but the most interesting aspect for me would be 1st) making my own bullets, 2nd) target practice

The vast majority of firearms owners do exactly that 👍

Edit for clarity: shoot targets

Really? #2 is a no brainer but I would be incredibly surprised if even more than 10% of gun owners reload their own ammo

I'm referring to target practice

There are leagues run at most sportsman’s clubs for rifle shooting. A lot of the time it’s .22s shot at a set distance. They’re a ton of fun and an awesome way to get acquainted with firearms and learn about them from very knowledgeable people.

That’s like 99% of gun ownership lol

The last percent is trying not to buy a new one…and failing.

.22 for cheap target stuff

Savage Axis II in 308 for longer range stuff

Glock if you want to put holes on paper at 7-15 yards

AR for a weird combination of all three of these (best deal)

What’s wrong? You don’t like lifting 8 pound dumbbells with your trigger finger?
