600y club is 35 mins away, so I try to make the time once a week during the spring/summer/fall months.
Lately I've been running a lot of 223's out there, 4" and 6" steel targets at 300-600y and I try to get the rifle setup, check the wind, figure an appropriate hold, and fire 1 round. Note the impact and try an immediate 2nd shot if there's no hit.
I get up, walk back to the bench, then re-engage at another target after I get settled again. Usually about 50 rounds a day with bulk components. Bulk 223's are cheap, brass is easy to find, and it's decent practice without recoil so I can work on fundamentals.
I do shoot a LOT of 22LR out to 300y, occasionally 400y.
When I bring friends it's generally more ammo since as soon as they connect at 600y for the first time they end up burning another 20 rounds down the range.
If I'm doing load development, I mix that into the practical practice.
