Whats the proper ammount of 22LR

[Rapier1772]

Or a month's supply in event of zombie apocalypse depending on location :laugh:

I wish I had 1/2 that much

[SHEEPDOG]

One round for each dollar of national debt should do it.

On the flip side how much is toooo much?

I don't think you can have too much ammo, if you can afford it. More apparently, it is up to your personal preference, as long as you play well with others and make sure your fellow sportsmen, hunters, and recreational shooters have access to the same.

For example, I don't have much money/I'm poor (but rich in so many areas like having awesome friends!). So I only stock about 1000 rounds at a time (it is more economical to buy 1k rounds at a time because of shipping-usually only $200 for 9mm) of 9mm for my competition needs. 1000 rounds only lasts about 2 months.

I use 90% of it at competition, while most serious competitors use it in the exact opposite ratio; 90% at practice, 10% at matches.

I compete twice a month. Well, it's more like one and a half, since I shoot a Glock or other 9mm only, at 3GN, unless I'm borrowing someone's gear for a stage or two.

The main concern, for me, when buying ammunition and storing it, is mainly to have about 200 rounds of SD/hunting ammunition. Other than that, if I run out of the other stuff, I just stop shooting.

I guess, budget and how rich you are resolves this question, at a higher rate. :thumb:

OMG...turkey season is right around the corner and there isn't a single freakin box of shotgun shells at WalMart...what the heck happened??
Lemme guess...now the FedGov is buying up birdshot as well??

[Rapier1772]

Well, deputy looney bird (biden) DID tell people to buy a shotgun & shells.

Of course he also told them to discharge the firearm into the air & thereby make themselves into felons (in many states) for brandishing & discharging a firearm in city limits. Which means his minions could now come take the shotgun away.

I think in todays climate any 22lr ammo would be nice! My LGS has it for frickin 80 dollars a brick. lol

[500SWfan]

Oh for the old days of $5 bricks at Target or K-Mart.

It's sad when you can't find a single box of .22 ammo within 30 miles. Surely the madness won't last much longer. I use the .22 for practice and my daughter loves to send them down range. We have slowed down a bit since our reserve has dropped to a few thousand rounds.

[Cyberfly]

Few thousand? LOL!! I'm down to a few hundred.
That's what I get for getting my twin girls 1911 .22LR pistols...

I have to search her range bag to see how much ammo she grabbed. I guess I'm lucky she enjoys spending time at the range with me. Never hurts to have an extra gun during an apocalypse either.
