i tend to just shoot/ work with just one rifle at a time. i will take 2 to 6 months and just use it hardly even taking out the .22. anyone else like this? got my stevens 200 in feb and that has been my only interest since.
every day is a gift. use it well

I don't get a chance to shoot my rifles very often as I'm a citiot(sorry Mikey had to do it) and don't have a rifle range close by, so when I do go I shoot at least four or five different ones. Always the 10-22 and the ar-15 then I will switch out other rifles.

 As our local Gun Club has "Public Day" (for non-members) once a month we usually take several rifles apiece when we go as to maximize our shooting opportunities.
  Come Sept all rifles are go to go. Plus, that`s when the, "gee, hunting season  is just around the corner" crowd
   comes alive.  10 deep at the range tables.  Range personnel doing their best to keep law and order.
   Not a good place to be.  Sometimes funny but still not a good place to be.
   We start the process all over again in January.  Beat the crowd!

I have never been to a shooting range, and I plan to never go to one.

Out here we have the "creek bottoms." 

Usually when I go out, I bring more guns than I should, and its a big pain in the butt carrying everything to the truck, etc, etc.  But it usually lasts all day, and is always a good time.  Especially when kreg comes out, cause he has a bbq that is always strapped in the back of his truck.  I mean always.  Even when he grills at his house, he doesnt take it out of the back of his truck to make sure he always has the grill mobile.
