If you don't shoot on a regular schedule,I don't know why you would want so much ammo. A lot of ammo won't shoot accurately in some guns so you would be better off with a sling shot. As far as living through a nuclear event and then only the strong live, I had rather be gone quick. Does anyone think about what the food supply would look like. But,it is a free country and we can all do what we want. I buy all my shotgun shells at gun shows for less then half price and a friend handloads for my rifles. If a gun can't shoot in a two inch space at 200 yds. it is going to some other home. Try to do that with some of the cheap junk they are selling today.
