So, my on hand totals are--16,250 rounds of .45, 9,850 rounds of 9mm, and 880 rounds of .556. Then there are my 12 Guage rounds but I didn't count them. So, I guess I need to start buying more to catch up :mrgreen:
That sounds like a good start.

Show me the man who knows exactly how many rounds of ammo he has and I'll show you someone who either doesn't have enough ammo or who has too much time on his hands. The same might also be said for guns.

I would have to look in the safe to be completely sure on the number of guns I own, and like you, I would have to count the rounds of ammo. Best guess is maybe somewhere between 10,000 and 15,000 rounds at the moment.
Yeah, I didn't know until last night. Wife was gone so had a little time on my hands. Note to self--Buy more ammo
