However, I think I'm more inclined to keep 1000 loaded rounds on hand of 9mm, 357, 10mm, 45, and perhaps a mixed lot of 1000 of 454 Casul and 460 magnum.
Assuming your 9mm is an auto and the 357 is a wheel gun, I think your ratios are out - I'm fine with just 100 or so 38/357 loaded on hand, but a few thousand 9mm. I go through more 9mm.
My kanban spreadsheet says I've currently got 2200 loaded 9mm, 2200 primed 9mm, 4300 ready to prime, and I don't count what's in the bucket awaiting depriming or polishing Yet I only have 80x 38s and 75x 357 loaded - and it's enough. I update the spreadsheet after each case prep or reloading session - if I deprime and polish a bunch of 9mm, I'll count and bag it, and add it to the spreadsheet.
The cases / loaded on hand part of the spreadsheet looks like this. There's more to it where I record components on hand, grains of powder per average reload, how many components I need to buy to reload every case 1, 2, 3 or more times etc.
