Very much do, this is target practice stash. The stuff I worry about is buried.

We'll be right out to locate your stash. Before we dig, do you have any water mains in the area?

Sincerely, The Feds.

I have 4 rounds of .22 mag in my NAA pistol. Had to use one on a sick animal or I'd still have 5 rounds.

Storing over 100 rounds in the same place is dangerous. I just buy a box of 20 on my way to the range and that lasts me 2 or 3 deer seasons.

I don't have much. To be honest it's my opinion that you don't need tens of thousands of rounds. I would be happy with 1000 of rifle, 1000 of pistol and 500 of buckshot ammo.

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

Your stockpile would get me through about 8-12 carbine courses and 1-2 pistol courses, leaving the 8mm in reserve (who wants to take a Hakim to a carbine course?!)

if, and I mean if, I owned any guns - which are icky, by the way, I'd want at least 2-3K rounds of ammo for each caliber I'd own, then I'd want additional ammo for practice.
I'd also want reloading dies and supplies for each of those calibers.

but that's all just theoretical, since guns are icky and I don't actually own any.

The lead plant closure has nothing to do with lead for bullets.

Just more manufacturers switching to plastic and zinc wheelweights, and garages getting exclusive contracts to sell their scrap to certain companies. And some scrapyards not selling to individuals.

Pretty much the same with me but I also have a box of 71/2 shotgun rounds.

I recommend a three-year's supply of whatever you will actually use.

Anything more than that, and realize that you are probably just storing it for somebody else.
While you might make a (very) small profit selling it later, you might reasonably question why you are bothering storing ammo any more than why you would store blue jeans in common sizes.

One day you will move.
Moving all that ammo, or trying to sell it in the midst of a move, truly sucks in almost every example.

I have more than I probably need. Not quite as much as I really want.

Posted: 8/10/2016 1:04:18 PM EDT

No, I sold everything that I owned before moving out of the United States.
