I have a Mormon friend who also keeps a year’s worth of ammunition on hand

Could you elaborate? During deer season, I may use 3 rounds, not counting target work and thats another 30. So does that mean 33 rds is a years worth?

If so, I am good until 2080 or so and I'm 50 yrs old ;->

I guess I have a lifetimes worth!

"I guess I have a lifetimes worth!"

I thought I did too -- until I read that some Congress Critters are talking about "serialized" ammo becoming required by law, and the DESTRUCTION of all privately owned unserialized ammo by some date just a few years out...

This is a "proposal" meant to circumvent the 2nd Amendment by "controlling" ammunition and making felons of those of us who will refuse to destroy our hand-loaded "stocks" of ammo.....

Oh, and felons can have their guns confiscated by law...
Interesting ploy, huh?

33 rds might be a years worth for deer hunting, but when the fecal matter hits the rotating blades, it might be a days worth, possibly less.

I will go through 50 or 100 rounds in an afternoon at the range.

As for the deer hunt thing, zero rounds there. I do not like to hear a round go by me and then hear the report of the rifle. Too many people hit things they cannot even see.

I have a .357 that I bought about 5 years ago and a box of ammo and I have never fired the gun. At that rate it will last infinity
