I think I found 200-300 of 9mm last time I looked, and about 750 .22LR and 250 .22WMR. The only one I'd push up into the thousands without a very good sale would be .22LR just because it's so cheap and not reloadable. A good sale might convince me to buy a lot .22WMR because anything other than CCI and Winchester can be so hard to come by.iratollah wrote:Similar to many folks who own .22s, 9mm and .308.KD5NRH wrote: people with .223s always seem to think they need thousands of rounds.
Zero rounds? I guess you don't remember 7.62x39 shortages about a year ago. Or have read about the bills that keep being introduced that would ban ammo as we know it (lead, primers, "armor piercing", whatever excuse they want to claim). I don't think anyone said anything about a civil war. Personally, I like having enough ammo for all calibers that I shoot so that I could weather any temporary shortage with a minimum of hardship and so that a ban wouldn't leave me with a useless weapon. Oh and in the case of any state of emergency the first thing they do is prohibit ammo sales (were you paying attention during Rita? Ike?)Beiruty wrote:You need just 0 rounds for anything but the range.
For the range buy what you need to shoot on a given day. If you think you want to go to war with your civil .223 go enlist. There is will be no US civil war for the rest of of your life. For anything else, there is no need for 0.223
