i'm sure you could reload , by hand, 50 rounds in less than an hour.
Seems a pretty safe bet. When at a NBRSA group match, there is a minimun of 1/2 hour, after you leave the line, before you can be called back to shoot. Often enough, that 1/2 hour is all the time there is, too.
Most people reload, clean the rifle, chat, smoke, have a coke, take a leak, visit the target area, whatever in that half hour. As for reloading -- likely be around 10 rounds to reload. Most of us soak the bore, then reload, then finish cleaning, then attend to whatever else needs attending to. Don't think I ever spend more than 10 minutes reloading between targets, usually less. And that's outdoors, at a match, using portable equipment.
Except for the strain of getting use to reloading at the range, and I suppose transporting everything, one notion new shooters might consider is to
only load at the range. Good training, and less wasteful if you want to test something.
Even for a score match, I often load at the range, because the week before was just too hectic, or I didn't have enough cases ready, or some other damn reason... Once in your repertoire, loading at the range is no big deal.
