How many rounds of ammo, grenades AND extra gear were they carrying when they did it?

That will be sorted out at the school.

"About half of the candidates at Ranger School drop out, Jones said, and most of those who fail to
complete the course drop out in the first four days which includes the same physical fitness test as
the RTAC course.

One of the differences between RTAC and Ranger School is the length of the forced march. In RTAC,
it's six miles and in Ranger School it's 12 miles, Jones said.

At Ranger School, there will also be additional tests of physical and mental preparedness, and
numerous simulated combat patrols, Jones said."

If nothing else gets them gone, it'll be the Night Land Nav and/or the Swamp Phase.
