How much more ammo do you need/want

[djkbmwguy]

As folks are wondering about ammo prices and the market, I thought I would see what everyones oppinion is on there needs and wants before they will not feel the need to make a trip to to check on ammo supply. I realize that most of us are out shooting so the need changes weekly but how many rounds of what cal. would appease your purchasing needs

This is not a post to judge how much a person has or what we think someones needs should be. I am trying to understand what YOU think your own needs are and how much more is needed to fullfil those needs. It might help to know how the market will play out for the next few months

I have about

1500 22LR would like about 3000
1100 9mm would like about 2000
100 12ga this is enough for now

Have all I'll want for the rest of my life, I'm fairly sure.

I load it as I need it. I'd say with the exception of a lot more .44 mag suitable bullets plus the same for a couple of other calibers, I have always been set. Once I am able to cast more reliably, meaning once the weather planes out some, bullets won't be an issue either.

I don't feel a strong desire to have a hure stockpile of things to fee safe.

Just one more than I will ever need, hopefully.

Lots of variables in this equation. How much do you shoot? Do you reload? How many different calibers do you have? Future availability of components and loaded rounds and on and on. From my observation it is a personal decision as to how much is enough.
But some people are forgetting that there are other things that can be just as important.

The Obama administration just bought 1.6 BILLION rounds for the IRS, FEMA and DHS. I reckon I need 1.6 billion and one...lol.

have about 500 .40 want about 2000

Right now I only have a 9mm, so I'd like to have at least 1,000 rds on hand. I was considering buying a 22 to have a cheap plinker, but nothing is really cheap right now. If I was buying based off pure availability, I may need to go grab a 12ga.

I think that ammo is becoming like money...can you really ever have "enough"?

 

[Bikerdad61]

Want another 1,000 rounds of .223 but I'm waiting till prices settle back to normal. Whatever normal ends up being ?

 

[nascarfantoo]

Probably have enough to make it until mid-summer at normal shooting frequency/volume, but want at least double that ... and will get there once things start flowing again.

No problem guys, how much you willing to give?

It's out there if you want to pay the piper.

Hmmmmmm. Need or want? I always want more but I have what I need.

 

[gunman41mag]

any less than 100,000 rounds is unacceptable

 

[Broom_jm]

I would like about 500 bullets for 44 and 44/40, and about 1,500 bullets for 9mm, although that's not really necessary. For my various hunting/target-shooting rifles, I'm good through 2013, at the very least. For some of my rifles, I'm good through 2020, unless I start shooting them a lot more.

A lot of folks on here have lost their ammo stockpiles in a boating accident some time ago.
