I'd be surprised if 3% of the population visits a shooting range or goes shooting more than once a year. Most gun owners don't even go shooting more than once a year.

I have no idea how many active reloaders are out there but I'd be surprised if it was over one million. Maybe one to two million if you include people who own a press but never use it.
You are leaving out the shot gunners. Many shoot year round and many reloads too.
