Not sure what that link is supposed to mean CoalTrain.
I am willing to bet civilians currently go through more .223 / 5.56 ammo right now than the US military.
Ammo adds up quickly just buying a few boxes here and there. If I happen to find myself and ammo in the same place and its reasonably priced, I am buying a couple few boxes. If I am cruising around the internet and see an ad with reasonably priced ammo, I will buy a couple few boxes. If I get an email advertising ammo on sale, I am picking up a few boxes.
I do the same thing with cases of water, dog biscuits, and tube socks. Just yesterday I stopped and topped of a 3/4 full tank on my truck because fuel was priced right.
How much ammo a person "needs" isn't really anything we can put parameters on.
