    What is your rough estimate counts of your ammo stash. Mine is roughly
    1,800 rds 5.56
    1,500 rds 9mm
    100 rds buckshot
    150 rds birdshot
    50rds 30-.06

    I feel this is a decent and average amount of ammo for someone who shoots regularly. Whatcha got in your stash?

    20 rounds of .270 WSM and a couple handfuls of various 12 gauge shells

    I guess I'm not a very good ammo hoarder :)

    I'm more if a bow guy.

    I have some rifle and a ton of shotgun in every caliper I own. Some being a few boxes. I guess I'm not very good at it either.

    If I WERE to hoard ammo, I sure wouldn't put it on a public site for all to see...so, with that being said, I have no ammo left ;)

    2700 rounds 5.56/.223

    370 rounds .45

    1500 .22lr

    Somewhere around 30 12 gauge slugs

    Going to be looking into a 9mm cc piece in the next week, if 9mm is readily available and normally priced that is. So will be adding some to it if so

    What is the risk in talking about legal ammo on a public forum?

    HAHA. I think the hype is over on the gun thing. Ammo has dropped along with guns now being in stock!

    I shoot a lot. Stock, shoot, replace. I figure if something ever happens where I need to use up that much ammo I would be dead before I use it all anyway. I'm not stocking up to provide for others, it's for me and my family.

    The more the government knows the more they realize it would be silly for them to try anything. They would be foolish not to think the American citizenry is armed to the teeth.

    Foolish? The only weapon most Americans have is their kitchen knife.

    I don't really hoard ammo, I'm a reloader so I hoard components. And like most reloaders, I have no idea how much stuff I have tucked away.
