    When you are eating your morning cereal and accidentally bite into a .22 round you have reached your limit.

        I currently have about 2.3 years supply on hand, at current rate of consumption. Mostly CCI Minimag and Blazer. With 3 22lr rifles and a Buckmark, its easy to go through a lot of ammo in a single range visit. I usually shoot once a week.

            I concur. Until then this is now on my bucket list.

              /\/\/\ This. However if you read reports in the news if you get raided and have more than one gun or 50 rounds of ammo you have an arsenal.

                  With interest rates so low, and with the possibiity of ZIRP or NIRP, .22 ammo is a better savings plan than keeping cash in an interest bearing bank account.

I can't seem to stop buying the stuff, I can't help myself I'd like to know if I should consider myself a hoarder or just well prepared. What say you?

                      3,000,000 rounds is too much. Who wants to shoot 1,000 rounds twice a week for the next 30 years? I'm sure ammo will be plentiful and cheap sometime in the future. Anyone with 3,000,000 rounds is just planning ahead a bit too much.

                      That's thirty times more than most people need, and sixty times more than most people have.

                      I'm fine with a couple 100 round packs of Mini-Mags and maybe a few hundred rounds of random Winchesters that I'm not sure will run my guns.

                        the number depends on and if you are using Common Core Math.

                          Yes. 22lr * 365 + apple - a Volkswagen =?

                            Based on what? I'm still waiting for the return of $.25 a gallon (or even $1 a gallon) gas.

                            It's liable to get ugly here in California. How ugly for how long has yet to be seen.
