Anonymous Coward User ID: 79105191 United States 07/09/2020 10:26 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I realize there are those who believe in storing hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition for a zombie apocalypse, but with the recent COVID-induced panic prep buying, ammunition has become quite expensive. Quoting: Am Yoo Nishin 77432258 Just yesterday I added another 1,000 rounds of 9mm to my supply, but it set me back $325. So I’m curious..... For MOST people.... for your Average Joe.... how much ammo do YOU think is enough? 500 rounds? 1,000 rounds? 5,000 rounds? How much is enough? . 22LR: Minimum of 20K rounds 9mm: Minimum of 5K rounds 223: Minimum of 10K rounds 7.62x39: Minimum of 5K rounds 45ACP: Minimum of 2K rounds 32ACP: Minimum of 200 rounds 380ACP: Minimum of 500 to 1K rounds Also have reloading equipment + a good store of reloading supplies. If possible: Have bullet casting equipment + alloy/lead wow you plan on taking out the whole town? or are you just a shitty shot and plan on missing a lot? |

Where are you located and is that your last stance. If you are digging in somewhere in the city, then as much as possible. If you have plans to go somewhere else, then stockpiling to much is dumb unless you're stockpiling at the other destination. |

Quoting: Evil_Twin I sold my house and moved 2 years ago. Right around the same time, my Dad died, so I had all of his stuff to deal with. So now, I have my ammo fort, and his ammo fort, all stuffed in a storage unit. When you have to rent a separate UHaul truck just to move ammo, it's fucking retarded. But here I am. I still have many spam cans of 7.62x39 from the 90s that I'll probably never open. Buckets full of 357 Mag that will never get shot. Fucking cases of 22 lr that still have Walmart pricetags from 25 years ago Now is a great time to sell some of that stash. |

The amount also should be calculated for having someone at watch....and having that someone turn on you..[so even ammo hidden is necessary] Last Edited by lurker342 on 07/09/2020 12:03 PM |

In a "stressful situation", there are a great many people who will have the need to supply their vices (nicotine, alcohol, drugs), before they will feel the need for food and water. |
