No. I reserve my personal ammo/reloading fund for shooting the way I want to shoot. I can also think of more productive uses for the time and more entertaining uses for the travel.
I don't have anything against competitive shooting at any level, but I do have to say this. I frequently have to take guys who have supposedly been trained, shot 'combat', 'tactical' etc. and then re-train them myself before they can pass a very basic, 'Hits Count!' qualification.
You can do an awful lot to improve your shooting with your head on straight, a couple of boxes of shells and a dirt pile. If you're going to shoot at silhouettes, buy the smallest ones you can find instead of the biggest.
I'll post a basic skills yardstick later if I get time. Wanna really test your skills?
