How Many Centerfire Rounds Do You Fire Per Year?

[Chas1]

38-250 rounds, 357mag-150 rounds, 40S&W-150 rounds, 45-50 rounds, 12 guage-100 rounds, 308-250 rounds 30-06-50 rounds, 300rum-150 rounds. Sounds like about 1150 this year but, now that things are returning a little bit more to normal I hope to shoot more. Doesn't include 22 rimfire.

As many as i can afford to shoot! Im new to handloading this year. ITS AWESOME! LIKE A WHOLE NEW WORLD!!!! $$$ cost effective for those of us who love to shoot! Man was i missing the boat before handloading!

 

[1357MAG]

Rifle- 223 Rem., 300 Savage, 30-06 Sprg.,
Wheelgun- 357 mag.
...and not to mention the 12 iron.
I shoot most of my rounds throught the 223 even though it is not an auto. I try not to shoot the 300 Sav. too much, because she was made in 1953, and it was a gift from my Dad.
Last year I did not do a whole lot of shooting due to financial reasons, but will be doing more this year for sure.

About 600 between my .308,.223, and .357 and alot of whitetail harvests due to MLDs

Some years I have shot only 2 rounds per year.... One to make sure it's 2 inches high at a 100 yards and 1 to kill a deer....

I am not joking at all... I have had the same 20 rounds of 270 win for the last 15 years.... Out of the 15 years 8 of them I did not deer hunt... I am still good for a few more years..

This year is shaping up to be somewhere in the 8000-10,000 range if business stays steady.From 17 cal thru .338 medium boomers.

i shoot around 1000-1500 per year , and maybe 15-25 of those are factory loads. nearly all of these are thru pre 64 model 70's.

I shoot about 500 rounds a year, I am far from being the best shot here. The 500 does not count pistol rounds.

The last couple of years I've been averaging around 1500. If supplies weren't getting so darn scarce I'd be shooting more, hopefully the shortage won't last forever.

I bought a Russian rifle that shoots cheap ammo. If I like the way it shoots I will be shooting more than 500 rounds a year. The rifle has not arrived yet, should be here within a couple of days.

I thought it was rifle rounds make that 10,000 plus if you count handgun,

Thanks,Keith

Dang it! I didn't even think about pistols. I'm well over the 5000 round count when I add them in the mix.

When I was shooting IPSC, over 50,000 per year! Now that I'm out of the military and working for a living. I'm down to about 10K counting pistol, prairie dogs, hunting, load development, tactical matches, practice and law enforcement qualifications.
