Been reloading for about 30 years. Probably have enough brass, primers, bullets, and powder to last me another 20 years.

I like that thought zeek, this is actually one of our what if talks we have at work. Another is youre at work and a emp hits. There comes a point where attempting to prepare for every possible outcome is impossible. If an EMP hits, then presumably I'd hoof it on foot back to the house if I were close enough, using whatever I had with me or could lay hands on. Given my domestic situation, my real-world scenarios would be to defend my home to the best of my ability. Against BLAMTIFA rioters, this is possible as they don't seem to like being shot at and so far have run away from people who fight back. It's also possible that they'll organize well-armed and disciplined militias which can overrun people like me. If that happens, I'll just have to improvise to the best of my ability. Or make them pay dearly for every inch of real estate before I go to Valhalla.

Oh il stay around to the end , im saying if you are held up in your house sitting on 5,000 bullets . You're still gonna die I don't have 60,000 rounds either, but I have plenty and I still contend it is no ones business how many rounds I or any other citizen has. We are all going to die sooner or later. No one questioned your right to own as much ammo as you want, Bob.

Does anyone think that Bob should be limited on how much ammo he can own?

My comments were not directed at you Duck Hunter and the plastic straw thing was meant as a light-hearted jab at everyone in general who appeared to be overly concerned with someones ammo purchase.

I dont think a person should be limited. Maybe the current price will slow some down. I have a buddy with a gun store and the way they are handled it is if you buy a gun they give you 2 boxes. They have a one box limit beyond that. He said he is pretty well stocked and has what I need. Now I just need to decide if I want to buy the kid the creedmore or the 25 06. More selections of guns in creedmore as that is the flavor of the month, I'm partial to the 25 06 cause I know what im dealing with, and from what i read unless your shooting 600 yards there is no advantage to creedmore for texas game.

That's my opinion, not a lot of models are being made in it and looking for gun in a certain size plus or minus an inch

Ok, fine. I will do it. Does anyone think that Bob should be limited on how much ammo he can own?
That's funny. But, we don't limit you and the other women on how many purses you can own though. well played, sir. But don’t knock it until you’ve tried it. You don’t have any idea how much ammo I can carry in my knock off louie vitton purse.

I sure did not help Tuesday night. Sounded like a war zone as rounds cooked off in my house fire.
