It's not so much the actual number of rounds in " typical " gunfight . It's sufficient supply to train/ practice to gain/ retain perishable proficiency .
The number of rounds ( per whatever time period ) has widely differing opinions , but the consensus is definitely more than zero .

I agree 100%! I am not paying $80 a box for .243. The only people doing this are not "new gun owners", they didn't buy a .243 or even a rifle, they bought 9mm, 45acp, and .380. This is being driven bc people with nothing better to do are going and waiting in line outside Academy Sports or whatever, buying as much as they are allowed (and bring family to do the same) then resell it on Gun Broker. The same goes with reloading components. It ridiculous. I could have bought 6 boxes of ammo the other day and didn't because....I have what I need. The people causing this are going to end up with a bunch of cheap ammo for a gun they don't have. You just wait, there is going to eventually be cheap ammo and never fired "used" firearms in the not to distant future.
Someone could always take pics and post on ammo hoarding shame. The problem with that is that some of those people aren't right in the head to begin with, and things can escalate.

I find it best to tread lightly when I’m new...if I have any hope of fitting in.

Tread carefully; your references seem to have been sucked into the Memory Hole.

It's ok to stop posting until the next person posts, then you can start posting again.
Same with ammo. I followed OP's advice and stopped buying ammo. When I see some at a good price I start buying again, and then I stop until I find some more.

it is. hilarious that the OP doesn't like the ammo situation and then scolds everyone and expects everyone else to change because he can't find guns or ammo

I'd like to buy for a dollar.
Should this be in the WTB forum?

To each their own! Whatever the cause of the " shortage " may be! The classified section here is wonderful for sales.

Bird and target loads are the only things that are regularly on the shelf at Bass Pro, seemingly at non inflated prices.
