My ammo closet. I need help. I'm some some of you *cough* WS4LIF, Cape, and ilike9s *cough* are ammo "whores", but damn. I think I need to cut back a bit.

Although surprisingly, there's no .45ACP, .30-06, or 9mm.

Well, I just finished reorganizing. There's about 200 rounds missing, and the safe isn't in there yet.

The closet (ammo section)

Level 1 = .22LR + Blow-off
Level 2 = Shotgun + Pistol
Level 3 = .223/5.56
Level 4 = .308/7.62x39/Misc Large rifle (Collector stuff)



Contains approx.:

1000 rounds XM855PD
500 rounds .22LR CCI MiniMags
500 rounds .22LR CCI Standards
525 rounds .22LR Federal
525 rounds .22LR Winchester
500 rounds .22LR SW Wolf
140 rounds 12G 8-shot
250 rounds 12G 1oz. slugs
180 rounds 12G 00 Buck
A box or three of some misc. 12G
500 rounds .40S&W JHP reloads
100 rounds .40S&W SXT
600 rounds .40S&W FMJ reloads
20 rounds .40S&W Black Talon
2000 rounds 75gr Match .223 Black Hills
1100 rounds 55gr .FMJ 223 Black Hills
510 rounds 55gr 5.56mm IMI M193
~400 rounds 52gr Match .223 Black Hills
500 rounds .308 PMP
~400 rounds .308 reloads
60 rounds .308 SA Battlepack
240 rounds 7.5mm Swiss
~90 rounds 7.62x54R Wolf
300 rounds 7.62x39 HP Wolf Copper Jacket
~200 rounds 7.62x39 FMJ/HP Wolf Bi-Metal
880 rounds 7.62x39 Cheetah Brass Cased

I still need to figure out where to put the 8mm Mauser stuff.

Holy crap. Grand total > 12K rounds.

Maybe I need an intervention...

Actually, you are quite correct. These were actually pick-ups from elcid selling off his ammo.

I need to buy some more of this and load up some mags.

But, my main HD weapon is a shotgun anyway.

Hell no. But 9 .30cal balls travelling at 1300 fps would convice them. And who said there was a pump?

Dude you are giving Anal Retentives a  bad name....  Staighten up that box it bugs me.....   Also with that kinda weight you might think about getting the the stainless steel racks that CostCo sells, that is what I use....  Course I'm not an a/r so I have piles of crap in front if it so I can't take any pretty pictures.....

The reason the box is box rotated and crooked is because it's a partial box an thus needs a distinguishing feature. All "partials are set diagonally.

Anal Enough for you? I'm sure I should have probably made a label for it, but that was a bit far.

OMG!!!  I give... yes you are anal enuff... I bow to your analness.... I

But one leetle question...  Do you determine the angle of the box by number of rounds left in it?

Now is this a rotating stock or do you go buy other stuff to shoot? Is this for the zombies?

Little bit of both. The Pistol ammo (SXTs) are too damn expensive to shoot, so I practice with reloads. The IMI 5.56mm is "zombie" along with some of the 75gr depending on the rifle. Same for the shotgun ammo. Otherwise, it gets shot.

It does suck having all my stuff locked up at my in-laws ( well, not sucks, but it's a little inconvenient sometimes ).....but at least it's locked up...

Much easier to haul cans! You never know when you may need to resupply a firing postition, IE; the bedroom window when the zombies/UN attack!
