Most rounds you've shot in one trip?
I went through 300 rounds of WWB 9mm 115, 200 rounds of WWB .40 S&W 180, and 200 rounds of .223 Remington in my AR. 700 rounds in total. Lots of fun! I'm sure it won't be the highest round count though.

Re: Most rounds you've shot in one trip?
Welcome to the forum...
My range trips usually include fewer weapons (rounds) because everything gets cleaned when I'm done and I'm lazy.

As a civilian, or as a Marine Small Arms Repairman (2111) ?

Rules are written in the stone,
Break the rules and you get no bones,
all you get is ridicule, laughter,
and a trip to the house of pain.

Re: Most rounds you've shot 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.When the SHTF......be the fan.

Re: Most rounds you've shot in one trip?
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.

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