Limited by space.
I stumbled onto a thousand black tip 308 bullets last September and spent all winter loading them into match grade cartridges with my shooting buddy. Next Saturday we are going to test them out with 1/4 and 1/2 in. steel plate targets. Should be a very fun time.
And if that happens even the hoarders won’t survive.
Good luck bartering and surviving with zombies after an EMP attack when everything goes Rwanda.
https://www.aguilaammo.com/rimfire/
Right at the top of that link is a place to become a Aguila Ammo distributor.
I know the whole state of Michigan is open, and someone could control a big territory by getting in on the ground floor.
If I was younger I’d do it in a heartbeat.
Also in the link is free shipping of 5,000+ rounds of 22 rimfire. Heck of a deal.
Michagan ammo dealer,,,
Hmmmmmm,
WTSHTF, I live on a lake, and intend to hide my catch of fish. Wouldn’t want be shot for a perch.
Personally, I only refer to my ammo supply by the case...
or ... by the Shipping container-full,
or ... by the boat-full.
My ammo bills rival small nations.

You should start with 1 inch plate steel.
Really? Will do. I’ve never shot any before so I’ll take your advice.
At under $20 for 500 rounds of .22 LR at Walmart, keeping a cache of 5000 rounds isn’t a big investment. Of course, a prosecutor in a self-defense situation will point out that cache to the grand jury as evidence that the defendant was a trigger-happy racist looking for any excuse to shoot an innocent black man.
Old Jeff Foxworthy line:
You mother has “ammo” on her Christmas list.
I can’t imagine trading any ammo, particularly in a SHTF scenario. I don’t want it heading back at me bullet first, nor do I want anyone to suspect I have excess.
Tell me where you bury it.
After the Zombie hoards get you I would really like to have at it.
I would also like to know what caliber.
(Of course)
Soft point 762 will go through 3/8th plate steel.
I put a rem bronze point though 1/2 inch non tool steel.
I plan to spend the apocalypse searching for the one dude who wants to trade 15 year old Laphroaig for a case of .333 OKH.
Buy it cheap, stack it deep.

And remember, just as with canned food, follow FIFO (first in, first out) practice and use your oldest stock first.
