200-400 since it's a long drive and I usually only go once a month or two.  I spend anywhere from 4 hours to all day.

Kokohead:
Generally
100-120 rounds 5.56
20 rounds 30-06
100-150 rounds 17hmr
100-150 rounds 22lr
10 rounds 12 gauge ( love to end the day this way, I have a 12 gauge stand that's blown to crap by slugs. )

Depends what guns I bring though.

Anything goes private range:
Holy Crap ! Go broke just thinking about it.
It's amazing how many rounds you can go through when you can fully load you mags.

Can't wait to see what Gongho says.  :shake:

Yup. Sounds about what I reckon.

How quickly do you shoot those rounds? Average.

Once every, say, 3 seconds? 10 seconds?

I always shoot at least 100 rounds of whatever caliber du jour.

But to shoot large #s at HF&R, you'll need to bring a credit card, home equity line or do the columbian mule trick and smuggle ammo in a body cavity

Interesting... i shoot about 150-200 rounds handgun each visit.

If I brought my 10/22, I might sneak over to the rifle side and shoot 50-100 rounds of 22LR.

[Edit] This happens a about once a month.

Funny--I'm just the opposite, I get bored shooting rifles.  Handguns are more challenging for me.

My ammo counts have gone waaaaaay down since Obanascares I & II!  No more than ten rounds a weekend now.

Was gonna make the same comment. Handguns are where it's at!  :)

Of course, I'm sure there's more things to do with rifles such as shooting standing, shooting prone, shooting 200+yd targets, etc that I have not tried.

I suspect that when I get into reloading, I might end up spending more time at e rifle side trying to get that perfect load.

If I'm shooting rifle side.

100-200 rounds of 5.56
usually 40-60 .308, .30/30, and various other calibers.  I haven't actually shot any of those in awhile, after I burned thru all of my .308 with my m1a last year.

If I'm at the handgun/.22 side
100-200 rounds of .45acp
250+ of .22lr
