Actually it's just a book shelf with ammo on it. I have well over 1000 rounds of 22. It is still hard to find but not impossible. Lets see YOUR ammo shelf.;)

My ammo is stored on a shelf in my gun safe away from prying eyes and sticky fingers. :)

My safe isn't big enough

All mine is in ammo boxes and tool boxes turned into ammo boxes.

Gosh......I don't have an ammo shelf.
I do have plenty of 22 though. Maybe 1300 rounds.

I have piles of ammo boxes in several metal cabinets... would take about 3-4 photos!

I didn't wait for the high prices or scarcity to build up stocks for each caliber. I did sell a lot of my .22 stash at too low a price, but I couldn't charge what the real scalpers were charging!

I've got a couple of steel, locked cabinets, one is full of shotgun shells and the other about half full of rifle/pistol. I also have some of all sitting on top of my gun safe, you know, the kind I'll grab if I'm going to run out and put some lead down range or I need to reload something else quickly at home.

Locked ammo cans for me, some in the safe.

Yup....
Rifle ammo and excess stuff, (380, 9mm Mak, 22s), go in a couple ammo cans.

Stuff I use regular for the range or classes, goes in the Moosehead beer box....

But most of my ammo is on a shelf...it's just not assembled yet. The coffee cans and boxes are full of empty brass.

The bullets are not on the shelf. They stay in a different box.

22 isn't a problem, got about 4K rounds. Although the Thunderbolt and the Winchester 222 don't like any of my guns except my bolt action, single shot, Remington.

My ammo is in the bottom of my gun safe. I have about 7000 rounds of which half is 45 ACP.

I think I heard you say that before. I saw a pic of one you saved. Is that for real though or is that just what you tell them? You didn't get any new ones?

I dont have a shelf but would like one. It would probably take a steel bookcase.

Now i have to resort to stashing my cases and ammo cans in closets throughout the house that the wife and daughter haven't managed to fill with dresses yet. My closet and gun cabinet hold most. The son i have in the military has closet space in the room he uses when home so ive made use of that one. Only problem is when he's home he sees half my stash and starts getting ideas that it's "ours" and not "mine".

I keep at least one unopened case of 9mm, .223, .308, and .45. Usually have 2 of each Plus other loose ammo plus a .22 supply Stashed around.

Generally, crates of 1000 rds dont fit on the shelf.

You are probably referring to my SKS photos I recently posted. That one was salvaged just as it hit the water. Notice the rust on it. :D

Nice thing about them SKS thingys....they continue to function come hell, high water, rust, rice paddy sludge, whatever. Add silver bullets and they'll take down most anything but mice.
