Can’t verify any of the info in the following article I’ve linked but it may either help or confuse more the questions you are asking.

There has been a lot of discussion on clips versus magazines. My experience doesn’t go that far into weapons but my question is it possible he had clips to reload the magazines to be used in the rifle? In other words do people carry clips as opposed to ammo in some other container for use when reloading?

All the victims at the school were shot with a rifle, at least some of them up close, and all were apparently shot more than once, Chief Medical Examiner Dr H. Wayne Carver said.

The Bushmaster was used in the school in its entirety and the handgun was used to take his own life,’ Mr Vance said in a Sunday afternoon press conference.

But now it has been revealed he had more ammunition in the form of multiple, high-capacity clips each capable of holding 30 bullets, raising the possibility Lanza had planned an even deadlier massacre and was stopped short.

‘There was a lot of ammo, a lot of clips,’ said state police Lt. Paul Vance.
