If your local gun range ask to borrow some boxes of ammo to set up a display.
It happened to me today.............

You are embarrassed at Cabela's when you realize you have more ammo than they have.

You folks nailed me!
You might be an ammo hoarder if:
You have a 3-D map by caliber and loading of your ammo storage area.
If every door in your basement has a caliber label on the door, and there's more than one door.
If your neighbors notice UPS stops at your house every day.

You might be an ammo hoarder/smart person.
If the current shortage is not really a cause of any concern to you.
Also if your UPS guy hates you. This is a pretty good indicator as well.

If your ammo supplier sends you a college graduation announcement for his kid . . . . because you paid for the tuition....

WHAT? You have a "basement...?!
I guess that must be a Northern thing, but NOT in South Tejas...

If your mail box gets crushed to the ground on the same day every week.
If your personal ammunition purchases are a major cause of the current ammunition shortages, you just might be an "ammo hoarder"!!

Not exactly on point, but sort-of?
A friend sent me this a while back, I can't imagine why though...
*Too Much or Not Enough?*

You may have heard on the news about a
Southern California man who was put under
72-hour psychiatric observation when it was
found he owned 100 guns and allegedly had
100,000 rounds of ammunition stored in his home.
The house also featured a secret escape tunnel.
By Southern California standards, someone
owning 100,000 rounds is considered
"mentally unstable."
BUT…
In Arizona, he'd be called "an avid gun collector."
In Arkansas, he'd be called "a novice gun collector."
In Utah, he'd be called "moderately well prepared,"
but they'd probably reserve judgment until they made
sure that he had a corresponding quantity of stored food."
In Kansas, he'd be "A guy down the road you would
want to have for a friend."
In Montana, he'd be called "The neighborhood 'Go-To' guy."
In Idaho, he'd be called "a likely gubernatorial candidate."
In Georgia, he'd be called "an eligible bachelor."
In North Carolina, Virginia, WV, Mississippi, Alabama,
Tennessee, Kentucky, South Carolina he would be called
"a deer hunting buddy."
AND OF COURSE
In Texas he'd just be "Bubba; who's a little short on Ammo."

I thought I was, but after reading this post, I guess not. I was able to pick up another 500 rounds of CCI Standard Velocity this morning for $39 plus shipping.

If your ammo supply keeps the house on terra firma during a hurricane and tornado force winds, you might be a hoarder.....

If an acquaintance whines, telling you he "only" has 6,000 rounds and you think to yourself "that's all? I have that much in my (truck or car or bedroom or closet etc)."

When you own two more houses besides the one you live in and won't sell either in a sellers market because you need them for ammo and component storage . 95% of my loaded ammo I loaded, the other 5% I bought factory because the cases are near imposable to find in the raw.

Sounds like we've got "proof of concept" here.
I'm not an ammo hoarder - too expensive.
I'm a components hoarder instead.
My stash is still worth more than my pickup though.
Not because the stash is so huge, but because my pickup is a 1986 model.
