My rule of thumb where I live is 1000 rounds per caliber except 22 cal. Need at least 10,000 rounds of 22 for small game and barter. Good luck. Stay well - Stay safe - Stay armed.

My rule of thumb is 10,000 rounds per AR, 5000 rounds per pistol and 1000 rounds per tactical shotgun.

I’d rather the 10K rounds of .22 LR. You can carry a thousand rounds on you and can plink, relatively unseen from great distances.

.22 rounds can be lethal up to 400 yards, for a deft shooter. If you only wound, well then that’s 4 people that have to carry the sorry SOB off the field of battle.

You get nailed with a .22 round out of a long rifle you are in a world of hurt.

.22LRs are severely underrated in SHTF situations!
