    how many rounds do you use per range trip?

    If you are a frequent range user, how many rounds you normally shoot per trip? (Not counting any competitions you attend, just your regular range trips.)

    After about 2 years of not shooting, I've started to go to the range regularly again this year (about once a month). Each trip I shoot about 150 rounds (between rifles/pistols/sometimes a round of trap/skeet)
    301
    50 rounds or less

    Usually about 100. But last time I was at Richmond Rod and Gun Club the wire holding the targets was shot seven times(yes seven) in the two hours I was there. I was only able to shoot about 50 rounds.

        Seeing as I don't get to go to the range but about 4 times a year, I usually go through 5-600 rounds each time. Usually a box of bulk .22lr, a box of .223, half box of .357mag, and the occasional 30-30 or .308.

              I usually take several hundred pistol rounds and let my friends shooth it. For my rifles, usually less than 100 rounds.

                    if Im using .22lr rounds, im gonna go over 250 rounds combined with my other caliber firearms. But I usually avg around 200 rounds on a regular day without using .22lr

                      I usually shoot about 60 rounds .223 and 100 .40 cal. when I go, which is about once a month.

                        I usually shoot around 300+, mostly 22lr as of late though. Switch between the Ruger and the Beretta....oh yea.

                          It really depends on what I take. With the AR and a handgun, I can easily burn 500+ per trip. If I'm out with my 5R and doing some longer distance stuff, maybe 50 in a few hours. If I take a shotgun, probably 100 shells before I decide I've had enough punishment.

                              Whether its shotguns, rifles or my .22, I always shoot at least 300 rounds in one sitting. It's just too fun!
