How many rounds do you keep in your stockpile with this shaky goverment of ours..

[30BulletHoles]

Tell me, if there is a financial collapse or a collapse of our government, what do you think five or ten thousand rounds of ammo is going to get you. Are you planing to use it to kill stuff to eat? Do you think that suddenly people will be trying to attack you and having that much ammo will enable you to fight them all off?

Just curious.

I wish I'd have bought 5k to 10k rounds of 5.56, 7.62x39, 9mm,.45 10 years ago when it was half the price.

Went to wally world couple of days ago and bought 2 boxes of centerfire ammo and 24 .50 cal bullets for my muzzleloader and it cost me $110. That is reason enough to stockpile.

You must not have ever heard of hurricane Katrina or saw what happened down there. No one is going to save you and the people that were supposed to protect the citizens were to busy attempting to disarm them.

Can you ever have enough??? Just started stocking up..

1000 9mm
500 .223

Ammo cans getting heavy

During a total meltdown ammo would also be a valuable bartering commodity. Something to consider when deciding how much to put back.

A bunch

Shot up a lot of the 9mm today.. Time to buy more

Never very much because I shoot it all shortly after I load it.

I'm not really sure how many rounds I actually have. But I do know that at H&H this Saturday, I burned thru around 1500 of my 9mm stash.

The Uzi and the G19 were hungry. Very, very hungry.

As well as all of the other responses to this question, there is another: will Wal-Mart, Bass Pro, or Academy Sports be open if there is a financial or government collapse? Where will you get ammo if you need it? Having a nice, large stash will make the certain ammo scarcity a moot point for you.

I have some. I always want more.
