Which calibers have U fired 100 rounds & more of?

[1MoreFord]

OP, are you serious?!

After all these years and beers you expect me to remember??????

How about asking us how many Rounds we've shot?

 

[Ivan the Butcher]

Rather than repeat the same long lists, I'll just list a few of my odd balls:

17 Mach 2 RF
32 Short RF
41 Swiss Velliti RF
218 Bee
221 Fireball
22 Bench Rest
6mm PPC
6x284
264 Win Mag
6.5x51 Carcano
8x56R Hungarian
8x52 Label
30 Mauser (from a Broomhandle!)
30 ACC Blackout
32-20 Win
338 Lapua Mag
35 Remington
38 S&W and the English equivalents
9mm Largo
38-55 Win
375 Win
375 H&H
43 Spanish & 43 Reformado (both about 11.5x57)
44 Russian
44-40
45 Auto Rim
45 S&W Schofield
45-70
45-90
458 Win Mag
450x 3.25 Nitro Express

I am surprised nobody said 28 Gauge.

There's a story I'd like to read. I've seen rifles that were converted to centerfire but, IIRC, empty centerfire cases were not available. I've never seen rimfire cartridges in shootable quantities.

Before I kick the bucket I want to reload 11 mm Mauser. That one is a lot easier.

 

[kamloops67]

Nobody mentioned the 455
Maybe that caliber is more common up in canada ?
I just finished hand priming 4000 38spl cases cause i was down to 700 rounds loaded in the cabinet lol
100 rounds ... Heh heh thats cute ..

this same question (Exactly) was posted 1-21-2016, here is the link: http://smith-wessonforum.com/lounge/460895-what-cartridges-have-you-fired.html?highlight=calibers+load+for%3F



As a matter of fact that thread was started by Backlighting too!!!



My response was post # 57 In that thread. There are not many posts in that thread that have as few cartridges as OP listed in the starter for this thread!

Any person who has shot a 100 rounds or more of .458 Winchester Magnum has my respect—A couple from a double rifle have lasted me a lifetime!

The Swiss ammo was never around in any quantity in the 80's, I just wandered around the OGCA shows looking. Dealers would have 2 or 3 rounds and I would buy the for a buck for the 2 or 3. the 32 Short RF was the same way, but every show I would go home with 25 or 30 of each and that kept me shooting.

The Italians used a Velliti rifle that was center fire, It looked about the same as the Swiss one. I have one that was converted to 6.5 Carcano for WWI, one of my few rifles that I have ammo for but refuse to fire!

11 Mauser reloading, I can help if your interested, PM me.

We got hillbillies around here that'll shoot a hundred 12 gauge #8's a day during dove season . . .

Heh, I'll shoot 100 a weekend right before bird season so hopefully i dont need to shoot but once a bird, and take my limit.

My list
22lr, short, and magnum
.38 special
9mm luger
.410,20,16, and 12 guage
Have shot a total of 3 10 guage shells out of an old h&r topper.... cured me of that idea pretty quickly.

 

[THE PILGRIM]

I hate to admit it, but I have fired close to 100 rounds of 12 GA on a one day Dove Shoot.
That usually means you missed a lot!
One time I was E of Ft. Collins Looking for Pheasant Opportunities.
I’m on a gravel road and cross a fairly big irrigation ditch.
A pickup is parked on the bridge and there’s a guy on either side just blasting away.
I stop and look. They are shooting pigeons.
When they reload, I ask, why are you shooting these pigeons?
They say, We don’t like pigeons!
I noticed they were throwing the pigeons in their truck bed.
The next time they pause to reload, I ask why are you taking them with you?
We gonna feed them to hogs!
So I got our my 12 GA, shot a few and threw them into the truck.
That may be the day I shot the 3 Legged Squirrel.
I’ll tell that one another day.
It took me a long time to live that one down!

To many to list,

My 72 mossberg bolt 30-06 closer to 1,000rds. Still accurate as in 72 great western auto $172 rifle with scope. Nickel sized groups at 100yds.

With the 1911 it’s 250rds per range outing. The rest I’m over 100rds per outing.

 

[pawngal]

I'm getting a bit of a chuckle over some of the comments about shooting
10ga. My hubby was a big time waterfowl hunter, mainly for the big Canadian Geese. He had 2 10ga shotguns, one was an Italian O/U and the other a Browning BPS. He followed the geese from Canada to Arkansas several years. That figured out 500-1000 rounds of 3 1/2 in 10ga hot loads each year. Never heard him complain.

Multiple 1000's of everything I own.......100's don't even scratch the surface. I have 2 Dillons(multi-caiber changes), 4 MEC's in 4 guages and an RCBS all setup and run as needed...........I feed the fish!
