after purchasing a handy box of 500 palma match bullet heads im wondering if you can actually have just to much stock of reloading components

it seems i have just around 2700 bullet heads in either 308 or 223 .... and 7.62x39 since i got them for cost




so what have you got that you think is abit excessive . i heard a guy on an american forum having 28 lbs of h110 .....

No you can never have enough bullets brass etc you never know.

I know the guy in the video is a sponsored shooter but just look at the gear in his shed,

There's only ever 2 times you can have too much ammo - when you're on fire, or when you're drowning

I am still using primers I paid £13-95 a 1000 for and I though they were expensive at the time!
I have always thought that reloading consumables to be a better investment than just about anything!

Jerry Miculek some guy, we have one of his famous Revolver speed shooting targets on our notice board. Mate met him years ago at Bisley, when Jerry left he gave my mate all the surplus pistol ammo he had left FOC.

As long as we have enough to cover 6-9 months worth of shooting I am happy.

Ah, but shooting what ?

The odd Farmer Giles caught wandering around with a spade and terrier might only need a pawful of ammo per year but continuous assault by ooman waves of zombies could see a need for ammo by the bucketful...

We have enough to cover most eventualities
