100K Plus? What ever for? It's not an investment, you'll never shoot that much if SHTF, its just pointless and a waste. 10K OK, even 20-30K Maybe but 100K

easy

just buy a brick everytime you are in the sporting goods store
it builds up quick.


+1

I been buying 6 to 8 value packs/month for the last 15 months or so, and shooting a pack or three of it every month, I haven't counted what I actually got stored, but it's added up to a nice amount after that bit of time.


+1


Just under 40k but working towards 100k, which is my goal. Just FYI, a 40MM ammo can will hold just about 40000 rnds in the 50rnd boxes. I have my second can in hot stand by and I need to refurbish the third can which I have on hand.



I just did a nice side job and converted part of the proceeds to .22. I added another 12,000 to the stores and got a nice start on the 2nd 40mm can. With my new work schedule I don't get to range nearly as much as I used to but I still buy/load just as much or more ammo. Thus, the pile grows. What I'm going to need soon is more .50 ammo cans. I picked up a punch at Numrich Arms a while back and a crate of 20 off EGay but those are about full. I also picked up a couple more die sets for new calibers so I need to work up practice loads and get going on those as well. I'm also waiting for the supply of the new Ruger LCP to show up at shops and then I'll need to start reloading .380. It's a never-ending cycle. Good thing I got that whole ADD thing worked out.

Uh oh...I have around 35k of .22 I hope I didn't buy too much?  Of course, I can burn through 550 rounds pretty darn fast.

Some people shoot more than others. My family can easily shoot up 5000 rounds of 22 in a month; my kids love to plink.  What's wrong with having a deep supply?

I paid ~ $120/case deliverd for the last 30K rounds of decent subsonic 22 I bought. What's the going price on it now?.

Lets say a SHTF was economic, everybody on there own. That 22LR would make some excellent trading stock wouldn't it? If he can afford it what does it hurt? I have 12K and wish I had 120K.

Not much. less than 1K. Just not a very usefull caliber for my purposes. If i lived someplace rural it would be. But in my current situation 5.56mm, 7.62, 00 buck & 9mm are what i stock up on.

I only have about 4k rounds.

Going to get back in the habit of picking up 500 rounds every time I go to the funstore.

I also bought a pellet rifle for when I run out of 22. Have about 2k pellets for it.

exactly.  i fail to see why it wouldn't be an investment?  if things go bad, then there's going to be people who have .22 rifles, but no where near enough ammo.  and what does it matter if you shoot the whole thing?  pass it on to your kids/grandkids.

i have about 1.5k of .22.  plan is to add 500 to 1k/mo of .22.

I just got above 12K this weekend. I have at least 7800 in Federal automatch, easily the best bulk ammo I have tried. Every one of my rifles and all of my extended families rifles love the stuff. Its the only round I can say that for.

I have a paltry 3500 rounds of wolf MT and ME, and another 2 or 3K of testing ammo of various types and brands.

Unfortunately, this won't last long since I am shooting alot this year.

I have a WHOLE lot less right now than this time yesterday!

Took 3 of the kids to the range for their regular rifle club practice yesterday afternoon, then afterwards, we broke out the 10/22s and BURNED IT UP!

I borrwoed an extra brick from a buddy after we shot up all ours, then started looking in the truck console, door panels, under seat etc

I'm almost down to my threshold level of 10K, but will fix that soon.

For those that wonder why you should keep a lot of 22 on hand; over the holiday weekend my son and one of his friends burned up almost 3000 rounds of 22 ( along with a case of 20 ga and four cases of clay birds).

I've got between 4k and 5k.  My goal is at least 10k, I buy some about once a week or so of the Federal bulk pack at the local Wally Mart.  After that I'll probably keep buying, or my switch to something else.

Just about 8k, give or take 550. All Federal bulk packs from Wal-Mart, my 39a loves that stuff.

Got a question, kinda OT but still on 22lr, how do you store yours? In the cardboard boxes inside a ammo can, or dump it all into a ammo can?
Link Posted: 7/13/2008 1:51:36 PM EDT

About 38k now and I keep all of it in it's original cardboard boxes and then pack in special aluminum boxes that I manufacture at work.(sheet metal business)
Keeping it in it's cardboard box makes it easier to sell if you had to.Also easier to take to the range.
