I do not think we know the murderer fired 200 rounds at Campos.
We are told he fired 200 rounds through the door. Most of those would likely be when the police showed up 18 minutes later.
I do not think he deliberately shot at the avgas tanks.
He only hit them with a couple of rounds. They are big targets.
Just misses from firing at the crowd.

No, the shooting had stopped by the time the four cops and one swat officer had reached the floor.
He never fired on any cops inside the hotel in the hallway.
Theory on why the tanks only had several shots at them and not hundreds? Because Paddock probably thought if they didn’t blow after a few shots he was either missing them or they weren’t going to blow. To continue to shoot for a few minutes with a hundred rounds at the tanks would have set off the crowd to flee and cops called before he could get to shooting the crowd and getting maximum deaths. Paddock decided to go shoot the crowd and forget the tanks once the first several shots didn’t blow up the tanks.
