In the scheme of things, 1000 rounds is nothing. I could see them getting interested for say 10’s of thousands. 223’s are relatively small in size as rifle calibers go. It’s like they came in on a pallet to the guy.

Sounds like hearsay.

Last sentence should read,

“It’s not like they came in on a pallet to the guy.”

1000 rounds of .223 is 2 ammo cans.

Approximately the size of 3 - 5 pound bags of sugar, I would estimate.

Let me clarify my previous statement.

1000 rounds of .223 takes up approximately the same space as 3 bags of sugar.

They are much heavier than 15 pounds.

I ordered some .223 about a month ago and it was supposed to arrive last week but when i checked on my orders status I found that it was now on back order. Is it a shortage or is DHS overwhelmed by the number of people that they've got to check up on? Also .223 may be a small caliber but the large case full of powder gives it quite a punch. I like 30.06 much better but they're expansive and hard to get now.
