I have season where I shoot a lot, but if you average it out, it is probably a few hundred rounds per year.

When I was still competing, it was closer to 1k a month. I still shoot over a 100 a month thru various rifles.

Sometimes I do. And when I do it's usually closer to a thousand. Sometimes I don't.

I used to burn about 10,000 - 20, 000 rounds a year, between fun shooting and competitions.   Just do not have the time or the resources anymore to shoot that much.
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.
