What do you have in your personal horde? Seems the good old days of cheap spam cans are long gone. With most of the lead smelting plant closures in the states to EPA restrictions passed during the last 8 years, and the restrictions on ammo importations I wanted to gauge everyone's stockpiles. I have limited my shooting with 7.62x39/5.56/308 the last few years just in case we get another 8 years of low supply

Personally here's my list:

1500 Winchester .45
3000 Golden tiger 7.62x39
2000 Wolf MC 7.62x39
2000 Wolf MC 5.56
1200 Winchester 308
300 Romanian 8mm

Whoever said many people are just storing ammo for other people is probably right. But some people obviously feel they need a reserve, either to hedge against future high prices (or non-availability), or for some kind of future SHTF conflict. And both reasons are probably valid to one degree or another.

That said, in most cases survivors will be dealing with it when those people pass on. For me, if there is ever a complete ban on guns or ammo, I'm going to have a hell of a range day burning up ammo and barrels.

Ammo is relatively cheap right now when you take into account inflation.

These are the good ole days unless you're poor

Couple thousand of 556 and 762x39. Prolly 500 300 blk. 2000 9mm. Prolly 500 each for 45 and 357. Untold thousands of 22LR. Honestly no idea.

TLDR: not enuff.

I don't have to be the fastest runner, just fast enough to outrun someone with a bullet in their foot.

~10k rounds of 22 rf...(a lot bought before the shortage)
5k-6k of 5.56
~2k of 7.62x51
500 rounds each of 45 acp and 9 mm.  

I reload, so hare a fair amount of reloading components for all of those.
