The ammo drum mounts to the underside of the M249 and securely holds 200 rounds of linked 5.56mm ammo. Ammo is fed to the gun by an opening on the side that has feed lips to help control ammo coming out. Ammo is loaded into the drum by a removable lid.
The M249 engages point targets out to 800 meters, firing the improved NATO standard 5.56mm cartridge. The SAW forms the basis of firepower for the fire team. The gunner has the option of using 30-round M16 magazines or linked ammunition from pre-loaded 200-round plastic magazines.
The modern load of ammunition carried for the weapon is 1,000 rounds in five 200-round belts, although up to 500 extra rounds may be loaded into 100-round soft pouches.
For annual qualification with the service rifle, scores range from 305 to 350 for expert, 280304 for sharpshooter, and 250279 for marksman. For annual qualification with the service pistol, the scores range from 364 to 400 for expert, 324363 for sharpshooter, and 264323 for marksman.
Short answer, 1000 rounds for a standard mission. Enough for a support by fire and to cover high avenues of approach. 240 gunners generally carry around 1,000 rounds per each machine gun.

While a rifleman normally carries seven 30-round magazines, an IAR gunner carries up to 16 and may carry as many as 21 due to the requirements of the role and fully automatic rate of fire. The magazine well has a flared opening that aids in magazine insertion.
