Plus 1 to saving good ammo boxes with the plastic dividers... I use them to keep my precision cast bullets sorted and unbruised. Oh yeah, they do a pretty good job of holding reloads too, but I prefer MTM and Plano for that.

As to how much ammo one should “stock” for each of his firearms, back in the ‘70s when I was a young adult, if I had more than two or three boxes for any gun, I was feeling flush... now if I have a gun I shoot on anything like a regular basis, if I don’t have at least twice that (or components on hand to quickly load them) I feel unprepared. Of course 22 rimfire supplies should be stored in the thousands of rounds... your mileage, like your needs, may vary!
