Well, I know it has been said before.
But, try and change your perception.
For some firearms, 10K is not much ammo at all.
Just think, let's say you have an NFA toy that shoot
900 rounds a min.
That means that 10,000 rounds will last you about 11 mins.
See when you look at it that way 10K rounds ain't all that much.
Or perhaps you wish to become proficient with your pistol. Admirable
if you plan to carry it. Some people believe it takes 3000 repetitions
to gain muscle memory. You can do that much in a month with no sweat.
Now, you should put 200 - 500 per month down range with your
carry weapon to stay proficient.
I think it is easier to comprehend the numbers we are talking about
when you consider just how much you "should" be shooting.
Otherwise, 100 rounds sounds like a lot. Heck, 100 rounds is just
4 medium Uzi mags worth of ammo. See, to my way of thinking
100 rounds is about 2 mins, or less, worth of shooting.
Don't try and "think" about it too much, get out and get "proficient"
and pretty soon 10K rounds will seem about the normal amount to have on hand, even in a nonSHTF scenario.
