Highest Round Count
Collapse

I keep a gun log for every gun. Yesterday i fired 72 rounds of fiochhi 170Gn FMJ. not 73, not 71, not 50, not 100. exactly 72. i go to the range between 1 and 5 times a week. firing between 12 and 180 rounds per session. So the only way to know the round count is to document it. stuff like i go to the range twice a week firing 50 rounds extrapolated over 15 years rarely gives an accurate number.Comment

Well as I remember from the empty boxes of hard cast bullets I purchased and all the Federal small pistol primers I bought I know I'm at 35K+ with my GP100. The only thing that surpassed that was my Caspian Open division gun, but that's on the second top end now.The wise man said just find your place

Why do you need an accurate number on shots fired? I mean really what does it do for you other than peace of mind how much time and money you have spent. If you believe it will help resale I don't think so because most everyone lies anyway and unless one of the guns you are selling is highly collectable then actual round counts are moot and if it's it highly collectable why shoot it at all? not singling you out just looking for justifiable reasoning because in my 40+ years of shooting and collecting it's never crossed my mind.I keep a gun log for every gun.

The Reason I bought A Kimber Custom II was because I shot one at the range and loved it. I asked why they had it as a range gun. They said it was a work horse. I asked how many rounds and the reply was 70,000+ and they only replaced springs and the barrel at around 50,000 rounds.Comment

I don't want to wade into a round count pissing match, I'd just say I think round is important to highlight just for the folks who pass on guns with 4-500 rounds through them as they think they're permanently damaged.Buying a safe and sane firework is like paying a hooker for a hug. I do not see the appeal in it.Comment

Jaysus! I shoot to have fun and improve my skills, not to sharpen my accounting skills. Practiced for a match next week today. Maybe 300 rounds out of an STI and 200 or so out of one of the CZ TS'. Pour reloads from various buckets into zip-locs, don't even know how many I take to the club except "a lot". Just keep the truck tubs filledI keep a gun log for every gun.

Ask me next week how much I shot today and you'll get a blank stare. Just don't see the point."Hence it happened that all the armed prophets conquered, all the unarmed perished." - Niccolo MachiavelliComment

Glock 34, 65,000 rounds down the barrel.Competition is where you find out you're slow, can't see well, are not accurate, have poor gun handling, can't visualize, have equipment that doesn't work and either accept it OR DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
