How many rounds do you keep at home for each gun?
For me its pretty easy every gun I own is 22lr, 357 magnum, 45-70 or 12 ga. But I know most gun owners have many different guns in many different calibers. Do you try to stock up on each round you shoot? To me that seem very expensive.
I even got to the point where I now load 000 buck shot instead of 00 buck in 12ga because I can share the pellets with the 357 magnum if I have to. A very light load of trailboss and a 000 buckshot BB make for a nice easy shooting round that is very quiet and still small game capable in a 357 magnum rifle or handgun.
It also allows for carry of a long gun and a side arm that share the same ammo. The 357 magnum lends its self to this very well as does the 22lr. I also can do it with the 45-70 and will soon be able to with 12ga once my tax stamp comes back.
Sorry for rambling on. Any way do most people stock up on all the ammo they can shoot or do you stock up on only a few rounds and then only have a small amount in the other calibers they shoot?
