How common is this grammar in everyday conversation? It seems to me that すぎる would suffice. Thanks in advance! :)

I hear it....occasionally, but すぎ（る） is MUCH MUCH more common. Maybe someone else can comment on the nuance between the two.

すぎるis definitely more common, but that's partially because they have slightly different meanings.


すぎる means specifically "to do too much," and まくる is simply "to do a lot." You can do something to a great extent or to an unusual degree (まくる) without doing it too much (すぎる).
