The only time you have too much ammo is if you're on fire or drowning.

You never can have to much ammo. Usually it is not enough time to get to the range to expend it!

I only want one more case.
I've been saying that for years.

I remember when Franklin (SaxonPig/ArtDoc) had the shelves in his garage collapse from the weight of ammo. It required a laborious clean up and would involve reinforcing the damaged walls
His solution? A new house with a much bigger garage.
Wise man.

2 or 3 summers ago a friend came over, mostly to drink my beverages and avoid going home. He sat in my garage, as I cast bullets, and looked at the ammo cans along the side wall and front of the garage. And said I had a totally different definition on "How much was enough Ammo!" So I said, "How much do you think is enough?" The answer was a mere 200 rounds per caliber of rifle, and 300 per caliber of handgun. (He has seen the error of his ways and repented! He's working on 2000 per gun or 3000 per common caliber like 223, 9mm, 45ACP!)
I have a similar system. 400 per gun I don't shoot often, and 2000 per gun (5000 per pair of SASS guns) that I do shoot often. It isn't a hard and fast rule, but seems to work out that way! Nobody would object to 5000 38 specials, 45 Colts, 44-40's or 12 gauge. I just think the same way about 223's, 308's and 45-70's. Things like 22 Hornet and other varmint cartridges can float around 2000.
I happen to like shooting 410 and 28 gauge shotgun and usually have 3000+ of each on hand. But shotgun hulls don't last like metallic cartridges so around 1000+ New and 2000 reloads seem to be where I hover. (my brother has shot shell delivered by the pallet! 10,000 seem to be his normal 12-gauge hoard!)
22's are a world unto themselves! 5 ammo cans of stuff for the grandkids to have fun with for starters. Several thousand each for the really fine guns.

That's impossible!!
I had 100 rounds of .455 Webley before I acquired the gun.
After I acquired the gun I discovered an ammunition seller who I ran into at the York gun show and at gun shows in Ohio. I would always buy one or two boxes of .455 Webley any time I saw him, figuring I needed to have a means to have empty brass to reload later. He said to me that he thought I bought out his entire allotment for a year.

How much ammo to much? Asking for a friend.
Guy we called Monday to find out why our furnace quit. He noticed ammo on table in basement and proceeded to tell us about having 10 members of his family that are LEO's. I have been waiting for a visit from one.
I hate being manipulated but I couldn't resist clicking on this thread. Got me. Joe

Saying you have too much ammo is even more far fetched than saying you have way too much money. I'm calling BS.....

Lately wal mart has had almost no ammo whatsoever. But I found 5 boxes of federal Auto Match $19 a box. Way better than the scalpers at gun shows. Frank
I need to stock up...I'm down to my last 20,000 rounds.
