No I am an user and found this a great tool to become a better shooter. It is absolutely worth the money.[/QUOTE]
Still reads like an ad. Nonetheless. It may be a useful tool. But live fire isn’t a waste of money.
Considering the value of dry fire I would need to be convinced hard that any dry fire aid was worth spending money on over ammo.

Re: 50 Round Practise Questions
These types of unit definitely bring something to the party. I was a sceptic till I got one to play with. It's not a substitute for anything but (with the right gun) can be used in live and dry fire. It has the potential to complement a shooter's normal training but may be more applicable to the intermediate/advanced shooter. I'm still getting my own head around exactly how to use one in the best way.

Re: 50 Round Practise Questions
The MantisX can be used on any gun with a rail and with the magazine adapter on any gun. (Rifles included) This is the best aid device I have seen and my average shooting went from 84% to 94% just under a month of use. (About 20 minutes dry fire a day every day)(That is about 1000 shots dry fire and if it was life fire 1000 x R2 (reloaded with Winchester primers and CFE Pistol powder even down to R1.75 if I use cheaper primers and MS200) So 1000 x R2 = R2 000 + travel to range and range fees and shooting at targets not knowing exactly what I am doing wrong to become a better shooter.

Re: 50 Round Practise Questions
Rather buy a reloading press. For the same money you could each practice a 100 rounds a month.
Even better, cast your own bullets and you could each shoot 250 a month.

Re: 50 Round Practise Questions
I have a press (and reloaded more than 150 000 rounds with it) I reload for R2.00(+-) 9mm and 45 for R4.00(+-). I don't shoot lead in my Glocks. Like I explained above I don't waste ammo just shooting at targets without MantisX installed and therefore only shoot 50 rounds to do target practice (and will be doing 1000 dryfires a month), but also shoot about 500 rounds + a month at sport shooting.
