Not a bad idea for a thread, but complicated I think, by location, whether you buy bulk, and which cartridges you're loading/shooting.
I buy bulk, ammo and components, when I see them on special, even if I have no immediate use for them. I bought 1000 shotgun wads, I don't load shot shells as yet, but the price was excellent. I bought 1000 9mm bullets last week, I'm not shooting 9mm currently, but the price was excellent. I am constantly trawling through dealer sites, adding things (brass and bullets mainly) to the cart, when I have enough there I place the order. I buy dozens of different bullets in all calibers for testing, I've never tried stocktaking them, but I would easily have several hundred different bullet types, I probably have more than twenty types just in each of .224", .264", .284", and .308", without counting the .204", .243", .277", .311", .323", .355", .357", .429", .450" - jacketed and cast bullets, mostly bought in bulk on special. Then there are 12ga. slugs, buck and bird shot, and more than twenty different air-rifle pellets.
Then I have thousands, and thousands of cases in all variety of chamberings, and more than a dozen different powders.
