Johnboy is right! Go have fun and learn from the better shooters. Experience is the best teacher and one day at an IDPA match is worth more than 5 solo trips to the range IMHO! The only matches I've been to that require more than 100 rounds are majors like State and National championships or big trophy matches.
Most of the folks that gripe about IDPA are more concerned with winning the match than learning and having fun. That's a shame - there are no prizes or money to win - go find a club in your area and join.
Sometimes you can find a club member that shoots the same caliber you do and they may be willing to reload for you. That can cut your costs enough to shoot more matches. We found guys willing to reload and formed little co-ops where everybody pitched in for the equipment and supplies and the fellow reloads for everybody.
