54. "Take a stats case sometime"

Try actually reading what the chart is measuring. The chart doesn't show the amount of ammo, it shows the magazine capacity of the weapon (and in some case there is more than one weapon). If you can't even notice that, I'm not sure why you think you know much about statistics.

Needless to say, there are plenty of other variables - number of "targets", opportunities to escape, cover, etc. But in all cases not having to reload and pump a lot of bullets in the victims, add to the death toll.

Now there are a VERY small number of cases where a mass shooter has managed with smaller magazines (4 of 37 cases). but pretty much, they rely on semi-automatics and high capacity magazines to do the job with great efficiency. So where is the evidence that the clip change time for "weekend plinking" is even close to what you get when surrounded by people who are running and screaming? Try unleashing a bunch or injured screaming children at the gun range and see how it affects performance.

And while you're at it, tell me why you need 15 and 30 round magazines. Can't you just reload with your "muscle memory"?
