I try to keep about 3-6 months worth of ammo based on my regular shooting habits on hand at all times. (Recently, I have increased the stash of 7.62x39mm because it's about the only thing I can find at decent prices.) I would guess that in most calibers I have 1000 rounds or less.
Anyway, I was curious for those with stockpiles of more than a full year worth of their regular shooting, when do you plan to make use of this ammo. (Obviously, I am for setting so back for an emergency too.) But say, you shoot about 3000 rounds a year of a caliber. Have another 1000rds for an emergency scenario. Yet have like 7000-10000rd on hand. That seem like a lot of ammo just taking up space, if you are replenishing it periodically along the way.
When do you plan to use the stockpile? At what point does it go from being well prepared to "just taking up space"?
Just curious.
