If I fire 200 rounds out of a rifle in one sitting, it is while shooting ground squirrels, with a .17 caliber rimfire or my .17 hornet.

I go through a few rifles a year, I’ll load a couple hundred rounds for about 4 or 5 rifles then head out to my cabin and shoot all day long. I don’t shoot 200 rounds out of one rifle in one sitting. Once I have an accurate load worked up then I take it to the pit for some long range shooting.
