I could see that if you only use one brand for one rifle, or have one rifle in one flavor.
I generally roll my own, and keep a log on what was tried for this and that, but never have documented the round count. I know I generally work up 10 of each receipe for testing, but that is a guideline, really.
I am real anal on my loading, wanting everything perfect, weigh bullets, cases, each round after, but counting how many in each gun, I just never saw a real end game to that.
I don't know about anyone else, but for the Noveske I'm on the 9th case of ammo that I've bought for that rifle. So I know that it's at least that. I also use that rifle to hunt hogs, deer and coyotes. As a result other ammo has crept in as well, so that's more a round about number.
The RRA NM is more exact since I only shoot match in that rifle.
I find what my rifles like and just stick with that pretty much. I'm guessing others are employing similar methods to get rough rd counts.
With my pistols it's a different story. There's so many different brands and lots of ammo going every which way that it's impossible to tell now, but I used to keep better track of it.
Now I more keep track of what's coming in than going out.
Just depends on how autistic you are about such things.
