How much ammo?

[snowpack]

2 shells, one for each barrel of the shotgun.

If you just get a Mossberg 500 you can make that racking sound without any shells.  I'm sure that will be good enough.

At least 1.5 billion rounds for each caliber. I get all my preparedness tips from DHS and FEMA because When SHTF they'll be ready and so will I.

hate to jack the thread but the red dawn comment brings to mind how the chinese made them change the movie from chinese to korean.

If you are looking to reload, go to midway USA and get on there notification lists. I just got a bunch of bergers in 22 cal, some 44 cal hornady, 451 cal for my 460 sw and colt. And a bunch of 10 mm. You just have to act fast once you get the notification.

It's a pain but I have been able to get all I want. Including primmers and powder.

By the way bulkammo.com just had a bunch of centurion 22 ammo( made by augila)
For sale for 600$ for 5000 rounds. Kind of spendy but pretty accurate ammo.

Always need more!

you never have enough.  what gets me is the people trying to sell ammo for more than you can buy it in a store.  i just bought 2 boxes of 9 for $38 and 2 boxes of 40 for $40 in spokane and they are getting lots more.  they limit you to 2 per cal.  dont ask where.    mike w

Double eagle pawn!

I think a good number is at least 500 rounds for everything that you use. A few hunder for stuff you dont use that much and a few thousand 22 rounds.

We were talking last night at dinner and after President Reagan was shot
 You would have to sign for Handgaun ammo.I not remember howling it lasted.

[high country]

It all depends on how much you shoot. I don't shoot much, so I only have 40 or so round....

As some idiots would say, you don't need ammo, just pee your pants.

[Karl Blanchard]

Ammo?  What ammo?  No ammo here!!!!

Here's the thing with ammo...IT AIN'T GETTING ANY CHEAPER!!  When you find it for a good deal stock up.  I remember when 7&8 shot 12 ga cost 3 dollars a box of 25.  Now you can't find it for less than 5 / bx.  .22 ammo the same thing.  The stuff doesn't go bad if you store it appropriately.  Don't buy at the panic price, but when you find it at non-panic prices, stock up.  Only you can answer the question of how much you need.

Scored a great deal on 1000 rounds of 9mm. Just gotta keep your eyes open and be quick when you find it. Thanks guys!
