Someone asked me this question the other day and to the life of me its a hard one to figure out.
Not that means anything of how good or experienced shooter you are, 1,000 properly aimed and fired rounds means more than 10,000 poorly fired, spray and pray rounds.
With that said, I have been shooting for over 24 years, I pulled my first trigger at 4. Adding up all the shotgun, pistol and rifle ammo I have fired as a civilian and all the ammo fired in the Army. I guesstimate mine at about somewhere between 12 - 15,000 rounds.
The military bumped my numbers up big time, having had to qualify numerous times on the M9, M16/M4, M249 and M240b and M2, the machine guns really added to my estimate. I once put out 1,500 rounds of 7.62 nato in one day on a 240b.
So what are yours?
