[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1685020, member: 97414"] Be wize and try to save some of your funds,,, only shop with in your means,,, """If you can,,,""" add 20 % to the quality of value,,, that way you don't end up with junk... So what do I have for optics,,, Two chunks of glass in the 20 to 24 power... $2000 now that there used... Ha 3 optics in the 9 to 15 power zoom,,, = $800... Three Rifles + a spare Fourth = $5200 to $6500 on a good day... 2 have been shelved for now... Reloading equipment $1000 to $1500... Reloading supplies, $7 to $8.000 becuase I buy bulk... LOL Extra hunting and shooting crap,,, $2 to $2.200 since this is my passion and only 1 of 7 outdoor sport activities... So my shooting sports and hunting activities are paid for... $15 to 16.000 TOTAL... So divided by 5 years = $3100 ish at this point per-year,,, $1500 is at the 10 year mark,,, I'll switch to 1 rifle with glass in the next few years,,, better to own 1 mid quality unit to get me by... 94 to 98% target shooting,,, 2% predator control and 2% hunting... A plan with no plan... LOL [/QUOTE]
