I don't keep track. I reload my own .45 range ammo so I would say 10k , A ton of AK ammo. about 1000 rounds of .308 and a few hundred each in 8mm, 7.62.25, 7mm and 6.5x55
Really depends...but this year I'm on a 10,000 round pace, give or take. Couple years ago, I did ALOT more than that, last year a bit less....like I said, it'll depend
6000-7000 handgun,mostly 9 and 45,well mostly 9 lately. Man this hobby gets expensive,but I try to shoot 200-300 rounds every other week. I just tell Mrs. 2TA that I can't put a price on her safety.
I woulda guessed around 3000 rifle rounds last year,but since my range closed I've had the AR out once this year,and just dinked around with the .22 out in the woods a bit.
using a primer count last year i went through 15,000 small pistol std 15,000 large pistol std 3000 lg pistol mags 3000 small pistol mags 3000 small rifle and a few hundred assorted large rifle. Just figured it out and it averages about 100 rounds a day. You got to keep in mind that im at the range almost daily. Its almost in my back yard and weekends im there most of the day if the weather cooperates and i have an heated shack there to shoot out of in the winter. Sitting here laughing at myself. Youd think id be a much better shot! Thank god for star sizers dillon presses casting bullets and my bullet trap or this would get real expensive.
Today it went to 1,064 rounds this week, and goin' back tomorrow for another 532! (I know...Rough job, but somebody's gotta.)
4 pistols...72 magazines...7 rounds per mag...1 mag fulla jackted hardball to clean out the lead. (Yes. I load 72 mags the night before. No. I don't buy into the lead gettin' mashed into the pores thing.)
I was shooting about 3-4k per year but my daughter decided that shooting with the old man was pretty cool so we're burning about 300-400 rounds per week. (last 4 months) That's going to put me up around 12-14k per year. The scary thing is that I'm going to have to start practicing between our friday sessions so she doesn't get better than me. Life just isn't fair.
I shoot about 25-30k rounds a year. A lot of that is .22LR though. A couple thousand is black powder and the rest is pretty evenly divided between handgun and rifle. I don't shoot the shotguns nearly enough. Sure is a costly hobby!
About 6,500 rds for my handguns....500 rds through my M-1 carbine....
Being on a tight budget, cannot afford much more.....However, I enjoy every "squeeze".. I try to make each shot "count"....
