    OK, I'll give a little more info. The calibers that I stock the MOST of: (say, more than 200 rounds)

    .22LR
    7.62x25 Tok
    9mm
    45ACP
    5.45x39
    .223
    .308
    7.62x54
    8mm Mauser
    12 Guage

    My total list is very similar to AKTexas - with some differences like 10mm Auto instead of .357 Sig for example.

    I'm trying not to add any new calibers to the collection. I always feel compelled to purchase dies and reloading components...

    I like my Storm Lake barrel. And you can load 38-40 hardcast lead bullets - 180 grains usually and they work well.

    Guess mine is a pretty simple list, but have kept focused on just a few systems, you know, ammo commonality.

    .223- enough for one rifle
    5.45x39
    7.62x39
    7.62x54r

    Nothing handgun... No handgun at the moment!

    Dang buford, that's a lot to stock up for! I think I'll stick to my basic 4.

    Yes it sure is. It is amazing how these guns keep adding up. The funny thing is, I have over 30 guns and can't stand to part with most of them. When I do get rid of one, I end up with something else to replace it. I would love to be able to cut that list down as well but just can't force myself.
