Hey folks!
I'm still kind of new to the forum, so I humbly request your patience if this seems like an odd or misplaced question.
I've noticed over the last few months that ammunition is gradually going up and becoming more scarce. As an American, I recognize this is pretty consistent on an election year. However, this year seems particularly different. The nation seems more polarized and chaotic than usual, which I believe has resulted in ammunition skyrocketing before summer was even over. Just today, I'm now seeing even WASR-10s selling for thousands of dollars.
I don't mention all of this with any intention of getting political (and would in fact prefer if we could keep this an apolitical conversation), but I'm beginning to ask myself how much ammo would be enough? I'm assuming that might vary by who wins and how often you shoot, but I do remember back in 2009 having to pay almost $50 for a brick of .22lr .
I like to go to the range semi-regularly and am a very active hunter. I'm curious what you guys think is enough or possibly excessive?
