Caliber Inventory Poll

[Cutshaw]

Anybody else concerned about keeping only a minimum of different calibers for stockpile/inventory reasons?

I'm at the following:
.25acp, .38, 9mm, .45acp, .357, .223, 30:30, 7mm Mauser & 12 gauge.

With the exception of the .38 & the 9mm (mid-sized CCW) they all fill a very different role but I still feel like I had fewer calibers of ammo to buy.

Anyone else?

(Now, let's see if I can make this poll thing work!)

[johnniet]

.22 and 9mm. I'm hoping to stick with that for a while.

 

[Cutshaw]

I'm at the following:
.25acp, .38sp, 9mm, .45acp, .357, .223, 30:30, 7mm Mauser & 12 gauge.

I forgot to add the antique and/or vintage mil stuff that I never keep more than a box or two of ammo for:

22LR, 32s&w long, 38s&w, and .410.

I guess that makes 13 but I don't really count them as user guns. I guess, conceivably, I could carry an old Aussie-issued S&W Victory... Nah.

13... Maybe I need to buy another to break the unlucky number!


(Geez, yablanowitz!? How much ammo do you keep in stock for each? Do you reload??

Yes, I reload for quite a few of them. I only keep a couple of boxes for some, but the calibers I have multiple guns in I have a thousand rounds or so for. I really started stockpiling after Clinton was elected and before he took office

 

[thatmguy]

Pistol - 5 different
Rifle - 4 different (5 with a pistol/rifle crossover calibre)
Shotgun - 2 guages

Dag....

 

[ArchAngel]

.22lr, handguns and longarms
.45acp, handguns
.44mag, handguns and longarms
7.62x39 longarms
12guage, longarms only!
I like to keep the collection calibers to a limit and centered towards individual uses.
