Commonize your Ammo
Posted by jarmans 8 years, 2 months ago to Going Galt
People who like firearms usually buy many different types. Under an ammunition constrained environment, a vast array of different calibers and gauges would be optimal. However that is also a nightmare under ‘Preppers’ law. I have chosen just a few calibers and gauges to communize on:
.22 – fits both rifle and pistol, carry a lot of ammo and contrary to folk myth, can kill.
.45/9mm – pistol cartridge, been around for over 100 years each so there are billions of rounds out there.
12/20 gauge – hunting and home defense ( I never saw a round from a box marked ‘Target Ammo’ stop when shot at a person) OO-B will kill, # 8/9 shot will make Swiss cheese and hurt them a lot.
7.62x39 – the assault weapons.
7.62x54 – the suppressive fire weapons.
30-.06 – my LOOONG range shooter (1400m)
