OK, show of hands, how many crates do you have stashed?

I'm up to 4, wife knows about 2.

Don't know if 4 1/2 is enough but that is what I have. As an aside, wife knows how much ammo and how many rifles I have. She even meets the big brown truck or mailman if I'm not home.

There is never enough ammo

. I don't have as much as I would like for alot of stuff but I'm picking up a little here and there almost everytime I go to the store

I feel like this might be the limiting factor in my enjoyment of the Mosin collection. If I had to pay for new ammo, I think I wouldn't enjoy them as much.

And the ammo obviously has a long shelf life, I could always sell it you guys some day!

How much ammo is enough? The answer is you can never have enough...ever.

When your basement floor concrete slab shows hairline cracks from the weight, that might be enough.

But, then it's time for a heavily built climate controlled storage building.

I just have a box or two somewhere

I have more than I need, but less than I want

It's nice to have enough ammo that with all the hoarding going on, price gouging, and just plain lack of product I can sit back and not worry about it.

Isn't two of the sting wrapped paper thingies with cartridges in them enough?

I would think, but my string broke and I lost a few in the cracks and crevices

so now I need another one of those wrapped paper thingies

If you have to ask when you have enough you dont have enough.

That said i keep about 20,000 rounds total on hand with 3/4 of that being 7.62x54r / 7.62x39 / and 5.56mm, with the rest.being odd balls (303/8mm/7.7mm) and pistol ammo.

How much? Oh 2 or 3 rounds more than I can possibly shoot in a lifetime. How long is your lifetime .....now that's the question.

With a tight budget, I tend to spend most of my money on rifles.. However anytime I see a good deal on Ammo I grab it. For example I got 100 rounds of silver tip for $30 shipped to my door last week... Currently I have about 900 rnd for my mosin and another 1000 of my .22. Not enough but it's what I have so far..
