If you are talking about a bolt action rifle with each shot being carefully and thoughtfully placed then I am inclined to agree with you. But if you put a semi-auto into the mix and also that not every shot is taken with the utmost of care then it would be very easy to go through a suprisingly huge number of rounds in a day. I have had days hunting ground squirrels where I personally burned up 200 rounds out of my single shot bolt action 22 while my companions each went through a brick of shells and more in their semi-autos. It is not outside the realm of possibility to go through that many shells in a day.
