In a year, 99% will be dead, ,and the game long gone, so WHAT will you shoot at, hmm? Can't practice, cause ammo will be too precisious.

    Ammo is the currency of choice during SHTF.
    There is no such thing as TOO MUCH ammo.
    There's no such thing as too much money right.
    But preparing is a never ever ending endeavor. If u have 20k rounds of ammo and no freeze dried food or water
    you've purchased too much ammo.
    Water
    Food
    First Aid Medicine
    Weapons
    Ammo

    Relationships U can't do much for any amount of time w/o help.
    I've been a preper for a while.
    But every week, I learn something or become aware of info i hadnt taken in consideration.
    Read or Listen to survival fiction .
    Relationships are so important. That's why the gubs have made militias almost illegal to mention. I would never be in a militia because I have no need to meet a bunch of glowies wanting to fight the government. My goals are to hide from them as they tear themselves apart.

    I know "Preppers" who have a dozen or more firearms all in different calibers. I can understand having one hunting caliber in your SHTF arsenal, but aside from .22lr keep your calibers down. I know a guy who died a couple of years ago and he had 2 dozen rifles and pistols and none of them used the same caliber. He even had hundreds of rounds in calibers he did not have firearms for.

      I have about 500 rounds of 7.62x39 and 308 and I don't have those rifles anymore. I keep it because one day someone might need it and I can trade it for something that I need. I also may run across a rifle in those calibers. It's just another part of preparing.

  • @Brett235
    @Brett235 3 дні тому

    For me I keep around 500 rounds of 9mm 115 grain fmj and 100 rounds of Hornady black xtp 124 grain. 5.56 m193 ball ammo I keep around a thousand rounds. I keep probably 4-500 rounds of .22 long rifle. I rotate it by purchasing 100-200 rnds and then shooting that amount out of my stock. The only reason that I stock ammo in those amounts is because of the uncertainty of the future. We've been through too many scenarios where the ammo dries up and gets really expensive. I am under no illusion that I will be in any gunfights, especially prolonged gun fights.

    Shot placement is great for game that is not moving. DO NOT RELY ON SHOT PLACEMENT with an underpowered round in a COMBAT situation. You are trying NOT to get shot and so is the other person. Armor may also be a factor. Sometimes shot placement means aiming center mass and hitting anywhere on the target. Especially when you are being shot at and the target is trying to hit YOU. That heart or head shot ain’t going to happen. Even experienced snipers know after that first shot followup shots will be much harder. Most of us are nowhere near shooting a heart from far enough away to not get shot back at accurately. Relying on shot placement will get most people killed.

    I'll give you the breakdown my 3 tour Vietnam daddy gave me.
    "Your home is not a secured bunker. If you stay there you will most likely die. When they sent us into the jungle it was with 10-20rnd mags for the primary. That's 200 rounds to go into battle. You can't carry thousands of rounds on your back and still move effectively. Everything you leave behind arms your enemies. Be smart, not a hoarder."

    there's practice ammo (or reloading components and scrap lead) which you should store-up in case it becomes super-expensive again, and there's actual shtf, ammo. They are not the same thing. You need 1000 rds of 223 per year, 5000 rds of 22lr and 3000 rds of 9mm, just to maintain a decent skill level. It takes twice that much to ATTAIN that skill-level You want 60 gr Nosler Partition softpoint ammo for the 223 and 50 gr, 2000 fps, solid copper Liberty Arms ammo for the pocket 9mm, which is best for both shtf and EDC CCW. Practice with normal 22lr ammo. I once went thru 120,000 rds in 3 years of IPSC competition/training, half of it cast bullet .45 ACP reloads and half thru 22lr conversion unit on a 1911. I wasnt really that much better than I am now, shooting 90% less (thru the pistol)

Also most people really don't maintain their equipment and weapons the way they should and their weapons are going to fail before they can shoot off a couple thousand rounds.
