No working 22?  Huh?   What?  ???

Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom.
It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.
-William Pitt, British Prime-Minister (1759-1806)

So...do you guys have enough 22LR in stock?  Time to evaluate did you have enough lying around before this virus hit.

Does anyone ever really have enough??  8)

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

I used to remember, because I would come across it from time to time, but CRS is getting serious.

Who was it that made a statement referring to the quality of a man judging by the .22 he had.
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

Yes, when the floor boards can not handle the weight  of it.  I have only a few bricks worth of 22.  Not high on my buy priorities  atm. 
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

I have somewhere around 10,000 rounds of quality .22LR and a couple hundred .22 mag, so I'm good.

Not really related, but how much of your guys ammo stash is reloads vs factory.

Right now for me out side of sd ammo, rim fire and some milsurp its all reloads. 


I am very much lacking in a few places,  i have 10 mags of 223,   i have about 100 38/357 and no 16 ga, despite me owning more 16 ga then all other shot guns.   I have plenty of 410, 20, 28 and 12.      Thats something i should fix, buy 1000 or so hulls and reload some 16.



Edit.... well i have 500 rounds of 1 oz # 8 rems coming now.   Still need to order primers, powder, shots and wads, but it will give me something to take to the range  when thry open back up.

I've been reloading my ammo since 1985, I still have some .38 Jacketed hollowpoints from the 90's I loaded. I would have to do an inventory but I would say I have 1500, .38's, 1000 .357 Mag, a couple hundred 9mm over 2000 .45a.c.p and a couple hundred 30-30. Shotgun ammo I have over 2000 12 gauge loaded for CAS and a couple hundred factory in various loads (Buckshot, slugs and birdshot ) and I just picked up 500 new Starline .38 special casings that will become CAS ammo.

I'm about 50/50.

I reload for trap, for USPSA and Centerfire Bullseye, and for SASS.
