It's hard for me to gauge that, 200 yards is the farthest I can shoot as a practical matter. I'm around 5k through it now, I'll shoot anywhere from 500 to 750 or so rounds in a range day, which is roughly once a month. I generally refrain from mag dumps though they happen on occasion. I do a lot of rapid, cadenced, aimed fire though, and lots of double taps. By rapid aimed fire I mean shoot, realign the dot to point of aim and shoot again. I'd say it's a smidgen less than a second between shots. I'll go though one 30 mag like this then hang a new target and repeat. After 6 mags I pause to reload. Or if I'm doing a @dsdmmat match it's a similar pace at with 10 round strings, punctuated by episodes of frustration when I will dump 30 rounds as fast as I can at a target and see what happens. Sometimes 30 rounds of magdump scores higher than 10 rounds of aimed fire, a good illustration of why military arms have focused on volume of fire over time. I wouldn't say this is mindless abuse but I'm not babying it either, barrels a replacement items. When this one wears out I will replace it with a Noveske CHF to see if the extra $100 over the Daniels Defense actually gets us anything.
