How much ammo for your primary carry gun do you feel you need to have stored now?

Well, to be frank, enough that I wouldn't have to worry about reloading to keep from an all out major halt to the current world as we know it.

I have several calibers of handgun and reload for all of them. "Social Ammo" I have a couple hundred rounds in all calibers. I stocked up well before the 2008 Election. I have several hundred in most calibers of reloads that I make on my twin Dillon Square Deal B's. Components for several thousand more, primers, powder, bullets and brass. I shoot on average around 3000 rounds per year all reloads. I have already tested the "Social Ammo" in all of my guns as it is one brand (all copper bullets). All of my reloading goodies are in an off premise storage facility in the conditioned air section. My 8x10 room is very well laid out. The "Social Ammo" is stored at home.
