Packing 10 will take up a space of 33" x 7.625" x14.5", or 2.11 cu ft. the XR311 has 33 cu ft of cargo space behind the seats, so it sounds about right.

Don't just think about the volume, think about the
weight. 2000 rounds of linked 7.62 is pretty close to 150lb, and that is a good chunk of your nominal payload in a vehicle that size. That would be absolutely fine for something on a short patrol, but a Morrow team has to live out of their MPV's for an extended time. You might have better use for that mass.
