Most rounds you've shot in one trip?

I think one of our family gatherings a while back we dumped close to 20K around between 15-20 shooters. But typically it is much less in recent years due to ammo costs.

My five year old and I will sometimes go thru 6 - 7 hundred rounds of .22 in an afternoon. He loves dumping 25 round mags with his 10/22. I would shoot a lot more .223 if it was cheaper. My son likes blowing off rounds with my AR too, but because of cost I kinda have to put the brakes on that.

That didn't take log ha ha!

I'd say a little over 4000 various rounds in one trip.

Thousands. That's the best I can come up with. A group of friends and I used to spend weekends in the Everglades and brought everything we had. Four bricks was about $20. A Charlie's Chip can full of spent brass was good for several boxes of centerfire ammo at Hollywood Guns and getting 4 or 5 cans was easy out at the various "ranges" along the eastern side of the "Glades.

Toss in a reasonable pile of cash and we'd have a lot of ammo. A lot. We showed up with cases of ammo.

Sounds great!

Can't help you with that one.




As a civilian, I recall one range session in the early 90s where I went through between 1200 and 1300 assorted rounds. Nowadays I'll take two to six firearms and perhaps two to three respective magazines full of ammo for each one. I may not shoot all of it. If I take an M1 or Kar 98k and hit the 400 meter gong offhand 60% to 80% of the time, I stop after one magazine. Otherwise it's boring -- BANG-Thunk-BANG-Thunk-BANG-Thunk-BANG-Thunk . . .

As a 2111, I can recall burning through 30 or so cans once to test several M2s, M60s, and M16A1s. Five of us and the Gunny had a lot of fun that day (summer 1974), but I recall getting approval for that much ammo to test the weapons was time-consuming.

Awesome! Sounds like a lot of fun!

I assume firefights in a combat zone don't count.

They can count if you want? Glad you made it through as well.

Sounds like a great time!

Sounds great! I think Tula is the cheapest .223 now.
