As I've mentioned previously, I go through a lot of ammo over the course of a year. Probably even more now that I have a range just a mile or two from my house. I usually like to keep 8000-10000 rounds of .223 around the place at any given time. I'm not a "prepper", but I do tend to stockpile a little more if it looks like ammo prices are going to rise for awhile, as appears to be the case these days.

Dude, thats just crazy... completely insane! Having that many rounds is asking for the federal government to come raid your house..

Yep, doesn't take up that much space, it will all fit under your bed... (so I'm told)

And when O'Bumbler gets re-elected and the riots start, you'll be kicking yourself when you have't stocked up

I don't know about riots, but it's likely that we'll see price increases as we run up to the election, especially if polling looks like Obama is getting the edge. My reason for acquiring ammo in excess of my immediate needs is to have enough around to carry me beyond any likely price fluctuations and buy again when prices drop back down, assuming that they will (as they did 4 years ago). Admittedly, that may be pointless since there's no guarantee that any gun/ammo restriction or ban Obama may initiate will include a grandfather clause, but I am hopeful (and reasonably sure) that we won't see the "authorities" coming around to confiscate our ammo or guns. If they do, then I'd have to reconsider my concerns about riots. Generally, however, I'm not a believer in all the SHTF/EOTWAKI scenarios. Those "prepper" fantasies don't play a role in my firearms/ammo acquisitions.
