I like to shoot the older stuff in my stash so I nothing gets too old, so I would not want to get to the bottom cans in that stash.

I'm definitely not an ammo whore compared to some of you that's posted your stockpiles. But I'm starting to get there and will be among you all if this damn monsoon season doesn't start soon. I'm bringing in more than I'm expending due to the forests closures. |

An interesting note; I have soaked new unfired pulldowns of '06 from 1940s .Mil, using LimiShine and Dawn, and while still wet fired the case and they all went bang. Damn good stuff. |

I think this works better. I mean, if a person only shoots his one Ar15 say five times a year and fires a total of 1000 rounds, but has 10k of XM-193 on hand, that guy is an ammo whore. If the same person now shoots his M16 10 times a year and burns 5k of XM-193 and has 10k on hand he is not an ammo whore. The definition also takes into account the fact that if we could not get ammo any more for whatever reason we would all cut back to save what we have. So what do you guys think? Maybe we can come together here and come up with the ARFCOM 1st theorem of ammo whoring. |

they can be real heavy but haven't had any real issues yet. One has 3k+ 9mm but to be honest, best cans for storage imho. |

I have 5K of "range 5.56 ammo" that I allow my self to use, but I buy 1 or 2 420 boxes after going to the range...I am not sure how much I have in the range ammo stash now, but my wife is getting pissed.
