Be careful Beiruty, you just fell into the same mind set that lefties often keep themselves in. The "needs" of one person can not be evaluated from the perspective of your lifestyle, or your needs. For most people, 10,000 rounds of .223 might be excessive but for a serious 3 gun competitor, 10K is really no big deal.Beiruty wrote:I am not sure why someone would need 10000 rds for a semi auto rifle.

As an IDPA shooter, I always try to keep several thousand rounds of components for 9mm on hand. To someone who "plinks" 100 rounds a year, this would seem absurd to have more than 10-20 years of ammo (from their perspective) "stockpiled". From my perspective, 1000 rounds doesn't cover a months worth of shooting.
