You shoot until the threat is stopped whether that is 1 round or 50 rounds.
Don't worry about saving ammo. You shoot till the threat is stopped or you run dry.

Well I know that, but I'm not dumping everything I've got when I don't need to. Always good to have more when you need it

This is proper individual combat tactics. You don't "waste" rounds during an active fight, but you don't reserve them, either. You certainly don't save rounds for threats that haven't materialized. We'll deal with that when it comes. But you finish the fight you have with the ammo you have.
It is an art to balance your ammo supply, hit probability and even suppressive fire needs, but it is an important balance. Important enough to take seriously.
