[QUOTE="sweeney, post: 309947, member: 453"] so how much is too much? I feel if I don't have a minimum of 200 rounds per hunting gun and 1500 of the staple small arms 9mm 40s&w .223 and roughly 500 of 20 & 12 gauge and 5000 of 22lr my stock is low. I guess I don't think of my amount of ammo as enough for a true pandemic, but enough to get me through a year or maybe 2 backlog ammo shortage. Most of our rounds get used when I go shoot targets with the family. The most I have went through in a day is 1000 22lr, 250 shotgun rounds, 400 pistol rounds, and 500 .223 before in a single range day or out shooting one of the specific group of weapons. I usually restock some of my ammo in this time because a lot of the manufacturers are offering rebates. I usually go through about 40 rounds of whatever gun I plan on shooting deer with during the summer/fall and 1-4 rounds during season. I keep leaning towards reloading but I don't really see the need for a stockpile to me reloading is more for accuracy reasons, but it would be nice to build rounds if this ammo shortage last more than a year.
