As seen on a bumper sticker:
7+1 in gun. 7 on a reload.

I never really did understand why anyone would have that sticker on their vehicle.
It would make me feel like Im telling the badguy that I only have 1 extra mag full of ammo when in fact I have 2.

Snuh?
The Speer GDJHP 124gr +P 9mm and 230gr .45 were both under $15 for a box of 50. On sale of course, but still way under $20.

I don't CCW but I do shoot IDPA and carry a pistol in the woods.
Every time I carry a pistol, my magic number seems to be 24 rounds, or two reloads.
That was until I tried using a snubby in IDPA style shooting. The speedloader pouches just don't conceal like a mag pouch does and you bump them on everything. It's a pain to carry three reloads. If I was going to ccw the snubby I'd keep the speed loaders in a pouch in a jacket pocket.
I use Federal 158gr Hydra Shocks in my Colt Magnum Carry. (Total 18 rds)
A BHP and two spares with 13 rds a piece (total 39 rds) is a pretty heavy rig to lug around all day without the right belt and holster combo.
My Commander and (3) 8 shot mags full of 230gr Hydra-shocks seems to weigh a lot less after a long day than the BHP rig. total 24 rds.
