How much is enough?

brennan · Jan 6, 2013

I have about 700 rounds of .22, 300 rounds of 9mm, 200 rounds of .223 (which I do not have a gun for), And several boxes of shotgun shells. So how much ammo is enough?

How many stripped lowers are enough to have? (Which I sold right before the price explosion)

I forgot to ask about mags.

1500 rounds for each caliber/gun you have
multiple 3/4 for each additional gun in that calibre

. and stock up on knives they will be the next to get a blame for something

.edit; 22lr ...all you can collect

I don't have enough 5.56. I have almost 2k but with a rifle class in the spring that'll burn 1k and with the wife and I running 60 to 100 rounds a session at the range we got caught short.

I try to keep at least 2-3K per caliber and 5K on .22lr.

Buy all you can. That's not nearly enough in my opinion.

there is never too much, only not enough.

Too much is not enough.

the answer to how much is always more

I remember last summer being at the Wal Mart in Edmond. I went to the sporting goods counter and there was a great deal of ammo on the shelves. I wondered to myself how many of my fellow shooting enthusiasts were taking advantage of the plentiful supply of ammo available at that time just in case this very senario took place.
