I'm a humble hobo student, so here's my meager reserve...but just you wait, one day I'll make you all proud...
7.62x51 surplus: 560: 3x battle packs + one very generous gift along with an M14s I purchased
7.62x54r surplus: 200 czech
7.62x39: handful
45-70: 25rds
30.06: 2x packs of M2 ball, 1x box of Imperial 180gr
.303 brit: 3x packs of Igman soft point
12ga: various, 200ish
22lr: Bucket
.22 mag: 100 rds
All locked in a heavy / awkwards filing cabinet. Not impenetrable, but would probably hold its own against a stack-on "safe"...
Just gotta be "seperate", right?

Well, some of you guys got me beat pretty good.

My ammo is in a couple of those smaller safes that Harbour Freight has on sale for $80 every now and again. They are perfect and I generally stock at peak:
1,000 .45 ACP hardball
1,000 9mm hardball
200 9mm Premium Hydra Shock Law Enforcement/Self Defense
200 .45 .........................same.......................
250 .45 Long Colt
2,000 .22LR various types, mostly copper washed
2,000 .38 HBWC target loads
250 .357 Magnum
200 .38 Colt (.38 special/.38 super?)
200 .38 +P+ Gold Dots
Think that's about it. Fills two safes to the brim. When I get down to the point where I am having to go find rounds at crazy retail prices I get together with another shooter or two and place a bulk order with Wolf in Kingston. His product is top notch and I have no problems with it in any of my guns. There are some calibres and types he does not carry of course, but mostly he is good.
I have a complete Dillon RL1050 setup here; thinking about getting into reloading and am being bugged about it all the time, but I just don't have the time or inclination to do it right now. Maybe when I have more time on my hands. Anyone interested in a complete Dillon RL1050 setup with loads of dies and all the bells and whistles might want to contact me as I am getting ready to unload it.
