[QUOTE="del2les, post: 2794875, member: 9299"] Depends on a few factors. With some of my LR varmint or comp firearms, it can be in the hundreds. I think the most I fired from one rifle in one full day of training/practice was 500, but usually, a couple of hundred. Large caliber medium to large game hunting rifles may be a few dozen to a box of 50. If I am developing a load, it could be more. When I lived in the country and had my own personal range and was heavy into comp match shooting, it was common for me to burn 50 rds per afternoon M-F after work, and then whatever the weekend match required. Small bore prone and NRA 22 Silhouette would be even more, a 100 rds or so per daily practice. Cleaning was usually ever 50 rds or so, but some barrels were good for 100rds before cleaning. A few calibers and rougher barrels needed a cleaning after 20-25 rds. The 22 LRs, almost never or until accuracy declined [/QUOTE]
