How many rounds of ammo do you shoot in a year? (include slugs)
It's amazing how many tins you can go through in a year with an average of 300 in a tin

How many rounds of ammo do you shoot in a year?

Voted 10-15K… At least one and half tins per month, twice that in Spring and Summer. I love to plink and am blessed with a big yard to do so. Edited to add I plink with inexpensive CPHPs.

It's amazing how many tins you can go through in a year and about $1000 or more, the price of 2/3 a new airgun

If you’re having fun shooting? The cost of ammo down range is inconsequential, I want to shoot as much as I can before I die.It's amazing how many tins you can go through in a year and about $1000 or more, the price of 2/3 a new airgun

Between IFP and FT and plinking I would have to say 15-20,000.
Last year with my Brock Sniper XR I would say about 10,000 by itself.
It always amazes me when I open a new sleeve of pellets and before I know it I’m looking to trade or buy another sleeve of what I’m shooting.
I only cast .357 maybe I should start casting .22 but then it would get in the way of shooting I guess.
Perhaps I should cut back a little after reading what I just wrote

I don't go through 1000, even if you count my son's shooting, who goes through the majority of pellets.
I mostly just shoot "in anger" at pests. And most of the pests around me are dead.

I basically shoot for 3 reasons:Can't even vote,...gotta be less then 1000 for sure
Getting a gun sighted in.
Killing pests.
Checking zero when I miss.
That *might* be more than 1000 pellets per year, but I have never counted them.

When I was shooting weekly for a couple years before the covid ammo rape, I would shoot 20 or 40 rounds in my bolt gun/s. With pistol, 50-100 centerfire, rimfire would 100-200. With air rifle I easily can plink/practice/tinker with 500 rounds. And very affordably.

How many shots the FX liners can survive?
I have about 10-12 K in my .25x700 STX-A and a close to 10 K in .25x700 Superior Heavy. Since birth of the Impact MK2 PP - minus the canadian winters that is about 6mo each

I haven't shot my SD handguns in a long while, although I do almost daily drills to stay consistent, I KNOW that not actually firing them (SD handguns) puts me at a disadvantage if push ever comes to shove.
The perp who burglarized my home and was later jailed for armed robbery will get out on the 26th of this month. He is Mexican and apparently, the laws favor illegal aliens in the USA today. This guy is the type that will always be a problem until somebody
Sorry to drift...
