Enough ammo

Post by The Wiz » Mon Mar 23, 2020 9:38 pm

I told my wife that I had enough ammo that I could shoot any of those pesky viruses floating around. She said her disinfectant wipes were sufficient. Aw....she's no fun in her old age. :D

Wife thinks I have too much ammo. Bought 2 more boxes anyway. Two more boxes won't be noticed.

I was buying ammo almost daily for eight years. It was mostly rimfire and 410 shotgun. That’s why I want the Henry Ax. :lol:

I thought I had enough ammo until my wife asked me if I had enough...

“Ummmm, no. No, I do not have enough ammo. I need to buy more :D ”.

I came home with 3 boxes of 30-30 and 3 boxes of 12-ga and she asked me what I “was going to do with all that ammo after the crisis was over”. :roll:

After I moved to shooting three handguns only, I have finally figured what is "enough ammo" to have in stock.

For total ammo in the three calibers, I'd like to have 999 rounds ammo (easy number to evenly divide). ;) This would keep me on the range shooting for a year, probably longer. Currently, I have about 2/3 of this amount.

I'm one of the persons that purchased, what I consider now, too much .22LR ammo back when the shelves were short. I have a lot of that ammo left, but no longer shoot any .22LR firearms. I look at those ammo cans on my shelves and just say "duh." :|

It’s one reason my main firearms taken to the range are rimfire. I was buying.22LR, .22WMR and .17HMR.

Dang! Lost all my ammo in a boating accident. Guess I'll have to buy some more after this "thing" clears up. Stinking boat! :roll:

My wife don't seem to complain about the ammo. She just complain that I have too many guns. I try to explain to her that it so we can shoot together. :)
