Do you literally keep track and log the number of rounds you put through each of your air guns?
Or...do you just approximate when asked or when you comment about this to other? |

| I used to keep accurate logs, but that has fallen by the wayside with other time constraints. Now I just estimate, but that's made easier by the fact that I never throw out the old pellet tins, in case I might need them later. |

i count out a predetermined number of pellets (in piles of 5) that i'm going to shoot in that session.
i normally shoot at least 250 in a sitting
but i do not keep and written records, nor do i keep any targets |

too much effort. though i should with my springers i don't. i make an assumption within 500+-.
i think my 440 has 15000 through it. hence it needs surgery . i only assume that number as it is on it's 3rd spring. |

All my guns use diffrent pellets, so I just count the tins, 22 thousand pellets total last year, for six guns.

I used to keep an accurate log when I had 10 airguns .
Now that I have 24 + or - one airguns, the log is collecting dust somewhere  |

I think that lever action helps upping the numbers a lot. Goes for the Twinmaster too, what'd you say, Al?  |

I haven’t re-sprung any yet Sniper, the only springers I have are a TX 200 HC and a B4-2, When I bought the TX I put 10,000 pellets through it in 3 months, overall last year the total for it would be about 15,000. I have bought a new spring for it but the power is still good so I’ll leave it for now.
My other Springer the B4 used maybe 1000 and the rest through my Winchester 94, QB 78, Webley Mkll and Rohm Twinmaster.
This is 18 months use and I always keep 10,000 in stock, you never know when you are going to need them.
You are right about the Winchester Anton it does eat pellets and gas.
