A little over a year ago, I said I had enough .22 to last me the rest of my life. At today's shooting, I have about 2 years supply.Greg, I agree to a point... with it all being relative.
Case in point, I have what I thought was a reasonable amount of 22LR, some plinking, some match grade, for the 22 shooting I do, or rather did.
Got a red dot as a gift for the 10/22, miracle find of a 22 pistol a month ago, and all the sudden I'm wanting to shoot rimfire steel. Figure about 5 bricks for the season... oh oh, that severely depletes my 22 LR.
Look in the classies and man, that's too rich for my blood cash price (but someone else will be happy with it).
Luckily, I had some excess 9MM, traded locally for the bricks I needed and will be flinging it in the general direction of steel, God and weather willing, because to me, it only cost what I had in the 9MM... or at least that's what I tell myself, lol!
But yeah, current cash market price, different story... so I get it.
Amazing how perspective changes, eh?
If I get this next order of 5000 primers in late February, once I load those up and combine it with what I have loaded this winter so far, I'll be good the rest of the year to shoot what I want.
