stocking up on ammo
I am down in Eatontown. we had pockets of power pop up around us, but our area stayed Dark. Our development does not get a lot of police patrols, so we established our own neighborhood patrol. And considering AT&T was down what seamed like forever, those walkie talkies I had bought for emergency use, actually were used. Between my two, and somebody else had a pair. We managed to sync up to one channel, and we took turns patrolling. We had just one incident of a group of teens, roaming around, that did not belong in our neighborhood.

stocking up on ammo
If you watch enough of the news, as a society, we really are only 3 meals away from social breakdown. although, I have a bug out bag packed and ready to go. That is more of a get out of dodge for a very short period of time. Bug-In, is more the plan now a days. When Sandy hit, we were out of power for 14 days. But everyday, the situation around us got a little better each day, so there was always a bright side. I do manage a stock of 20 gallons of Emergency Gas, as long as my wife doesn't use it, and not tell me she took some... Grrrrrr !!!!! But if you look back a couple of years, after 911 when the power grid collapsed, and the entire Northeast, Lower Canada and parts of the midwest went dark. How long do you think it would have been, if the lights did not come back on the next day, before things started getting crazy. And there was no time to plan for that. One minute they are there, one minute they are gone. So, as i do my planning for Emergency preparedness, when I asked, My favorite Expression, "If the Lights Go out Tomorrow, what are you going to do... " At least with Sandy, we all had time to stock up and make preparations. And do we even want to speak about what a good direct hit of a nice Solar Flare would do for our Electrical Grid??? I know, worst case scenarios, but it has happened before, it will happen again. We have just been lucky. And remember my friends, when things are dark and troubled. The light at the end of the Tunnel, may not always be the light of Salvation, but more so the light of an Oncoming train !!!! Hoarding or Stocking whatever you want to call it, is not necessarily a bad thing...

stocking up on ammo
I dont really call it hoarding or stocking up. For the past several years, I have liked to keep a "Inventory" of a level that I am comfortable with. The way I see it, If the lights go out tomorrow, you are not just going to be able to drive down tot he store and buy some. Taking a look at the current environment is a perfect example. If I happen to be at the right place at the right time, and Ammo is "Reasonable", I usually buy it, and will use for bartering, or to just maintain my comfort level of inventory. And if it is a Good enough deal, I go to the Range and have some fun...

Storing Ammunition
I never really thought of it as high caliber stuff. I was more concerned about actual perception of value with box or without... But your right about Storage....

Storing Ammunition
Question, I have a box of 1000 rounds of .223 that is packaged in a way, that takes up a huge amount of space in my safe. I am not really interested in selling it right now, but wanted to know if I took the rounds out of their cartons, and placed them in a more storage friendly size carton, would I take away from any perceived value "If" I chose to sell or trade later in life. If I kept one or two of the original boxes folded in new carton? As you can see in this case, each box takes a lot of space the way they are packaged??

Found them here.... http://www.cdnninvestments.com/ instead.

Can anyone recommend a good handgun that ammo is plentiful for?
I have had no issue for my .40's & .45's, I just bought my first 9mm yesterday, and is currently in the NICS check out line. I had been accumulating 9mm over the past month, but that has mostly been for the safe "Round Count", and will most likely just buy some ammo at the ranges. Although, I did see the other day, some factory reloads that were available, but you have to be quick when the opportunity presents itself.

Sad State of Affairs.....
Yeah, I know... Like I said, What the hell.. I am actually pretty good on Ammo, but I wanted my wife to see why the safe is full, and more boxes coming everyday. When she saw that the shelves were completely empty, the light bulb clicked off with a Ahhhh Haaaaa moment.... As I keep reminding her, If the lights went out tomorrow, What are you going to do...
-
Sad State of Affairs.....
When the only 22 ammo you find at Dicks is bird shot !!!!!! Hahahahahahaha yeah, I bought 2 boxes for what the hell - who knows situation..... Other then that, cases are totally empty except a few cases of Blazer aluminum casings. A few cases of Remington .45's behind the counter.
