You may want to just stick with BUCKSHOT?

Saw some slug 12Ga on AMMOMAN.

I saw something on you tube a couple weeks ago on new 12ga military rounds.HE,Armor pearcing,etc.Kinda like scaled down rounds for the M79/M203. At the fun shows in Ohio a vender sells drilled out 12ga foster slugs to incert a 209 primer?I guess were walking on thin ice here. No more real bird bombs,just noise makers.

Yeah, the HE round is in use now from what I have heard along with the new shotty, the AA-12.
This is one bad mutha, but the Saiga still beats it when it comes to cyclical fire(and the saiga is semi auto)

We all know that when it comes to stocking up on ammo and supplies, you are most likely and probably relying on defending your home and staying put there(because it would be impossible to haul around a ton of ammo food and water)
What is the best way to cache or store ammo? Where to stash it from prying eyes? Same with water and food?
Someone earlier made a suggestion that these supplies be "buried" or kept in "sectional incrememnts" for easier access. I would also think that if someone found one of the stashes, your whole supply would not be lost?

I dont have a basement( a true basement) but I do have an attic and a newer poly shed in the woods behind my home.

Also, ammo cans-how well will they actually keep and preserve ammo from moisture?
Would dessicant gel packets work in conjunction with these containers to keep ammo dry and functional?

My bad, the last two posts were supposed to be under a new title in this section.
The forums "posting" system is acting up again....!!!!!!!!!

Upgrayedd, it sounds like you got a lot of sleep last night.

OK, so I have:

2,500 .22lr rds
1,100 7.62x39
1,000 .17 rds
150 .45acp rds
100 12 ga buckshot rds
50 12 ga slug loads
75 12 ga assorted shot size
3,000 .177 pellets
.357 sig 1 box( I do not own a .357 sig)
9mm 1 box( I do not own a 9mm)
.223 1 box( I do not own a .223)

I'm working on increasing the .45 acp and the 12 ga 00bk loads. Once I pump those numbers up a bit, I'll work on getting a few more ammo cans and I'll feel alot better....
