This is what we have stocked up:

~1k rounds of 9mm FMJ
~500 rounds of 9mm JHP
~1k rounds of .40 FMJ
~500 rounds of .40 JHP

Thinking of getting another 1k each of FMJ in 9mm and .40, maybe 2k of .40 since I shoot more than the woman.

What do you guys have???
 
1200 5.56 mixed 55gr 62gr fmj sp jhp
10k 5.45x39
2.5k 7.62x54r
3k 8mm mauser
300 .30 carbine
500 7.62x39
100 .303
100 .308 (need moar)
1k 9x19
2k .45
300 .40
5k .22lr

I'm running low...
 
You say you shoot more than the woman, but how much do you shoot? That is the most important question involving how much ammo to have. Different people need different amounts.

How long does it typically take you to go through 1000 rounds?
 
I find these posts amusing. Just setting yourselves up for bad things to come posting what ya have on the interwebs...
 
Oh yeah??....Well, I've got about 6 or seven guns for each round I own. That way when things get hot, I can have a choice to fit the moment. Thought about getting 10 HiCap mags per gun per round but I've only got so much space in my super-secret nightstand drawer...
 
Between 14-16 k and components for 3-4k more.'let the panic buyers have fun, I have enough to stay out of the way until they calm down.
 
Not all that many, but I have enough components for quite a few.
I have been buying reloading supplies a little bit at a time over the last several years.
I will not be part of the problem by panic buying and hoarding. :)
 
Before Tuesday not enough. After Tuesday not enough.

Nothing changed

Also this.

If I could afford it I would like VERY much to have 20,000 rounds each for my two main calibers (9mm and 5.56), to have on hand but not be part of my to-be-shot rotation...but there's just no way I can afford that.
 
I have a good supply of 22LR ammunition, but sufficient amounts in other calibers that I commonly shoot. I don't burn up centerfire ammunition that quickly.

As one poster said, how much you have or what is "enough" is based on your shooting habits under normal use conditions. I personally have enough to last me a while unless I get kind of crazy with the centerfire stuff. But I seldom shoot more than a box of a particular centerfire caliber during any one shooting episode.
