Depends on what type of machine gun. For most Western/NATO machine guns, the belts come packaged in 100 rounds on M13 disintegrating steel links, and these can be linked together to form as long a belt as one wishes. The linked ammunition for the FN Minimi/M249 SAW typically comes in 100 or 200 round linked increments. For your heavy 12.7mm/.50 machine guns, it's usually 100 rounds linked per box of ammo.
