60rds of .223
8rds of .32acp
70rds .40sw
16rds .3006 ap in garand clips and I dont have a garand
about 300rds loose .22lrs
5 12ga slugs
5 3" 12ga 00 magnums
100 12 ga #6
and 3 yes freakin 3 rds of .45acp


good thing there's a fun show this weekend, thats not enough ammo to even take down a good sized deer!

and the worst part is I know all that from memory and if I went and looked in the one friggin ammo can that holds all that save for the 8 .32 and 20 .40sw I'd find my numbers were correct. and if you're from the government, its stored in the southwest corner of the closet in a 840rd m193 can.

It's always good to have at least 1000 rounds on hand in every caliber of firearm you have.  That's usually what I try to keep.  As for the mags I think you need more.  I have 20 for each rifle.  Get them while they are still affordable.  USGI or Thermold only.

Seeing as how I am un-employed and I have gone shooting quite a bit. I am shall we say running on fumes.

As far as mags, my rule is 10 mags per rifle. The standard capicity variety(30rdrs), what the anti's call Hi-Cap. This is a mis nomer. HiCaps would be a beta-c mag. 30rdrs are standard mil issue these days.

Heck, I usually carry 1000 rds in my truck. 1000 rds is just a good day of shooting. I've got 1000 rds rolling around loose in my sock drawer. If I only had 1000 rds of 5.56, I'd be having a panic attack.

I've got about

1,400    .223
800      7.62x54R
2700     9mm
500      30.06
4000     8mm
10,000   .22LR
1,250    12GA Birdshot
100      12GA 00 Buck
50       12GA Slugs

Then several thousand each of small rifle/pistol primers, about 20lbs of various powders, 10,000 various pieces of brass and 5,000 or so various bullets.

Enough to hold me over till October in everything but 9mm and .223 anyways.

Gee, I guess I misunderstood something.  I thought that was what the numbers were that went with the rounds.  I got 22rds of .22, 38rds of .38, 40 rounds of .40, 45 rounds of .45, 223rds of 223, and 308 rounds of .308.  I wasn't sure how many rounds of 7.62x39 to get.  Do you multiply those numbers to get a total??? Oh yeah, I also have 24rds of 30-06.  I wonder if this is why the guy at the gun shop looks at me funny when I buy ammo??  he really doesn't like taking some of them out of the box to sell me the box.

Well you can burn off about 1,200 rounds real quick in a serious fire fight, so lets just say you better bring a months worth of food and water.

Yeah , I dunno if that's info. I want floating out there!  hehe
 I have plenty! As in at least 2-3 thousand for each of the calibers I shoot regularly.

 Probably about 8,000 rds total of all the

  10 calibers in all ( I think)

Hold on for a minute... I'll get the numbers for you just as soon as I get off the phone with the local media and ATF.  I figured they would also like to know.

CQB30,

I would like to see the building after you burn off 1200 rounds in Close Quarter Battle. I would think in any urban situation 10 to 20 rounds would be a serious fire fight, unless you are in LA of course.

I am a recovering ammoaholic and magaholic. I couldn't begin to tell you how much ammo or how many mags I have. It's always fun to find a brick of .22 in the glove box you forgot you had though.

I just love when they talk about some "danger to society" being taken out of his "barricaded" house by the local "peace officers," and they talk about his "assault weapon" (highpoint carbine) and [i]"over [b]100 rounds[/b] of ammunition!"[/i]

Bwaaahahahhhaaaahaha!! One hundred rounds?!? Dude, you need to call for resupply most ricky tick!

A little over 15,000 rounds and enough reloading supplies to make another 5,000.
Only about 1,200 are rimfire.
