Not sure exactly how many rounds, but I did have to brace the floor to keep it from sagging. Plus reloading supplies.

If anyone around here feels like they have to much on hand I am currently accepting donations.

Mine. Now I need to get some more PMags.

What are opinions on quantities of ammo to have stored for each caliber? or each gun?

.
Why would you ask that question?

"Darn it, I just have too much ammo..." said nobody ever.

Nope, I just need a stronger floor.

Nah. Just divide by zero.

So, you have 66 mags for all your handguns?

I do actually have more than enough magpul mags to load 1k .223/5.56.

You bring up an excellent point. Many folks do not have much in the way of mags. If it ever does hit the fan, I don't want to spend time constantly reloading mags. So I have stockpiled mags as well. Probably not enough.

That 1k per is probably a pretty good place to start.

i have 1000+ rds of 40 S&W target ammo and about 180 rds of my carry ammo

I actually feel that 66 mags/per handgun is excessive.

ETA: I came up with the number 66 by averaging handgun mags at 15, and divided that into 1k rounds.

9 mags total for my gun. i carry 3 and use 6 as "range mags" but if it ever hits the fan I wouldnt mind using them for other purposes

IMO that's a very good place to start.

I need more ammo - obviously.

Most common calibers are at the lowest prices I've seen in 5 years. Heck, even the uncommon calibers too. It's a good time to buy. I should get another 1000 of everything I shoot, but honestly, storage space is a problem.
