In the steel matches I shoot, there are 4 stages, 5 shot strings (assuming you don't miss), you get 5 runs at each stage. So, potentially you only need 100 rounds. I need more.

You need one mag for each time you shoot a string (5 in my case), I have a spare.

It's a blast and very addicting. Have fun.

Can't help with the IDPA.
