245. That's correct.. both in raw numbers (with slight variability year to year) and ..

the rate of firearm use in robberies | homicides | aggravated assaults | etc.

ie, in 2006 there were 129.9 per 100,000 robberies committed with a firearm of any kind and in 2007 there were 127.7 per 100,000. At the same time, the actual numbers went down as well- 2006: 388,897, 2007: 385,178.
