I imagine serious shooters go through a lot of ammo and would have quite a bit on hand. Me, I shoot maybe a box of 50 rounds a year and I'm as accurate as I need to be. I do dry fire drills 2-3 times a week, about 10-15 minutes a drill using dummy rounds, with all live ammo accounted for and locked up, in my home when there is no one else here.

I sometimes lurk over at AR15.com and read some interesting comments about magazine capacity at a shooting range. many said they prefer the 20 round and even some liked the 10 round over the 30 round because having a 30 round mag in their rifle made firing from the prone position awkward. some said they kept the 30 round magazines at home for social work and went to the range with the 10 or 20 round mags.
