Default How Many Rounds Do You Have?

So how many rounds do you guys have for each of your guns? Whats the average? I usually like to stay around 500 rounds for each gun whether that be pistol, centerfire, shotgun, rimfire, or muzzleloader. Some guns i have way more and others fall short. But the 500 is my mark. Whats yours?

Darn it 50cal, you made me do an inventory count. It only took a few seconds though and came out to "bunches and bunches".

i order large supplies for my muzzleloads and once its getting low, order more. Anywhere up to 2,000 rounds in an assortment of bullets.

Normally no more than 100 of any particular caliber or grain weight for black powder. Up to 300 or so for 22's and 15 or 20 for shotgun slugs.

I personally would hate to guess how many projectiles I have around the house. Maybe a thousand or more. With hundreds of sabots, hundreds of primers, and all the other things I need.

Enough .22 bricks to build a small shed, and if you stack all my pistol, rifle, muzzy rounds end to end.... What was it that Ralph Cramden use to say? "Too the Moon, Alice!"

I really don't stock up on "rounds", or ammunition. I stock up on components. I probably have a minimum of 500 rounds of brass for every cartridge rifle I have. I have no idea how much RF I have stocked up, but it will last a long while. I probably have about 80,000 primers on the shelf. Along with well over 100# of powder. Also I have over 4,000# of casting lead on the shelves. And in jacketed bullets I probably have 15,000 or so bullets on the shelf.

I need to pick up a few more jugs of Trail Boss, and then all I would ever need for the rest of my life will be some more Black Powder. And maybe another 10# or so of BenchMark. Tom.

I have a sufficient amount to take care of the zombie invasion.
