Should I buy even more premium JHP?

[heeler]

Ever since the great ammo drought of 2009-10 I like to keep a bare minumum of 1300 hundred rounds on tap per caliber.
And in all honesty that aint near enough.
However that evil called money often times dictates a different story.

IMHO, ammo WILL increase in value but I'll offer two caveats as follows...

... but, rather, buy water storage, freeze-dried foods, and other necessities.

I hope I'm not walking on thin ice here but... ammo doesn't cover all necessities which may become very valuable sometime in the future, even if only to one's self and family.

Actually, a bit off topic, but I'd rather have a smaller amount of stored water, and instead have water purification devices and consumables around - they take up less room, and in addition, you don't have the issues with managing stockpiled potable water - believe it or not, it doesn't keep indefinitely.

If the price is that good then buy it.

Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.

As somebody else suggested, you could buy some in all of the popular calibers. If society collapses you can use it for barter. Depending on how bad things get, ammo may be the hottest commodity of all.
