If your wife made you get a part time job at Cabela's...You might be a Ammo Hoarder
Are you an ammo hoarder?
- Thread starter Buford57
- Start date
... if you work out regularly, but you have no bench and you never go to the gym.
... if your house has its own gravitational field.
... if you have a bad conscience because of the recent ammo shortage.

Much ammo in the safe
I bought a lot of ammo but then started reloading and still have many rounds in the safe including about 4000 RDS of .22 , remember the great .22 shortage ?
i wouldn't call it hoarding but just stocking up

If you keep encouraging your single daughter to date the nice boy who's father own's a couple tire shops ...
You know if she marries him ... you could be getting free wheel weights for LIFE !

I'm fixed for ammo. I didn't get it buying at crazy prices. I only bought at sales, auctions, ect. Only ammo I've bout at store was brick of CCI SV 22s at $3 something per 50 and Two boxes of 45acp just last week for $35@.
The way I see it, Dick Weeds that pay outrageous prices are going to set prices even when present panic is over.
I seen the new generation of shooters going to ranges the same way gophers do. Stop at Wally World and buy a bucket of ammo and blow it all away. Others bragging about how many rounds they fire in a month. They are full of it and are streching things a bit. If they shot 8hrs a day for 30days they couldn't load and fire that many aimed shots. Guys like this is who we have to thank for high prices that are never going back to pre panic levels.

We will probably never see prices as low for ammo as before the pandemic. The manufacturers will raise their prices to the wholesaler/distributers and they will pass it on to us via the box stores and gun dealers. However, I wonder if with the inflated prices if their overall sales will be as high as before this madness. It would be funny, if their higher prices lead to lower yearly sales.......Just thinking out loud..........

When the Fed Ex driver tells your wife he delivers more ammo to you address than any other and has several gun shops on his route. Then she remembers UPS delivers some too.
When you sell some to a local shop by the thousand round cases more than once.
Both happened her.

Might be considered one, but ....
I don't really have as much as some here are talking about. I do have some in reserve and then there is the amount I will practice with from time, to time.
While I have the floor, does anyone have a favorite recipe for 5.56 NATO they would like to share?

When your stock of ammo and components approaches or exceeds the value of your home.
When the fire department responds to a house on your block but they wait up the street until they've verified it's not your house.

One of my shelves quit sagging...it collapsed. I built a new one out of 2X4's and 1/2" plywood. It doesn't sag anymore.
Back in Y2K days I built a large cabinet for canned goods in the basement.
That Y2K deal never struck. So what it was canned food that we bought on sale and stashed. We chewed on it for couple years, probably saved us some money. Wife turned it into cleaning supply cabinet after food was used. Just this AM she said she was cleaning it out and stocking it with canned goods again. Beans and bullets with occasional shot of Burbon is all that is necessary for us Hill Billies.

When you trade ammo to your doctor, dentist, mechanic, A/C man, for their services.
Ehrmagherd! We should all be so prepared

If, when you think you are getting low on a caliber, you just start organizing closets/basement/sheds/garage/attic until you solve the problem...
OR: If you find a dusty storage box under your garage work bench containing 4 different calibers of factory ammo in bulk packs totaling 2K, and a 5 year old receipt for the ammo AND the storage box. (Hmmm, guess they had a sale...)
OR: After you clean your garage you have to find space in the reloading room to install another shelving unit to get the ammo you found off your bench so you can RELOAD MORE AMMO!!!
