since I roughly change out 200gallons a week, soon to be more once I get my 210g, iv been planning to collect my water in barrels I have outside and use it to water my yard/garden.

I don't know how many GPH I need to run 6 sprinklers in the back and 6 more in the front once I get that system set up (roughly 1000 sqft in the back 750 sqft inn the front). Im looking for experienced and more intelligent member for advice. looking to keep cost low and obviously save water by reuseing it

currently looking at this model
1/10 hp 320 gph

or this one
1 hp 1057 gph
https://m.harborfreight.com/1-hp-portable-sprinkling-pump-1075-gph-63320.html

big price difference and don't know if it's necessary to spend that extra money.

if anybody has a better pump please share, if you have better ideas I'm all ear. thanks
