      250 rounds, with another 250 rounds in the truck as reserve.

        steves86ta,

        With prices being the way they are I usually only take 100 rounds. I was told prices will come down allot but when is the question?

          I take 200 rounds twice a week. Shoot them all.

            More than I think I will need.

                  Indoor - 300 each gun (9 and 40)
                  Outdoor- 400 for my ar, and about 200 for each 9 and 40

                  I've never shot everything. Most times it's usually half of what I bring

                    Copy that! 90-100 is about normal for me on rimfire. Heck, even with my AR, if I take the 24" HBAR target upper, I put in a single-shot loading block to work on accuracy and technique and I'm exhausted after 70-90 shots.

                      On average, I've been going weekly to an indoor range.

                      I bring 50 rounds with me and spend half the time dry-firing. I'm only 2.5 months in on this journey, so I'm still working on anticipated recoil.

                      I imagine this may change if I add another gun (or two or three) to the collection and start getting better results.

                        I'm curious about your routine. What do you do?

                          I always try and make sure I come home with unshot ammo. So I bring quite a bit.

                          Nothing is worse than a range trip where I'm left wanting.

                            I take two .30 cal. cans full of an assortment of the 4-5 calibers I shoot. There's a staple gun, cleaning rods, and some random stuff in there too.
                            Sometimes I shoot 50 rounds, other times 300+.
                            My range session stops when I start getting sleepy, or hot, or bored.
                            Ammo gets replenished as it is shot.
                            I never pack for any specific range session.
                            Range house monitor always laughs because I show up with so much, but I'm lazy and figure I can always grab a can or two and have what I need.
