I'm about to start stocking up on .22 lr like there is no tomorrow.
I'm hoping to have 10K rounds stocked up for my son by the time he is 8 (he's 2 now). I was just going to buy a box here and there, basically any time I already have a bulk order in.
Am I going to run into problems with primers or powder not working? How long does a rimfire cartridge last? I know various rifle and pistol ammo comes with sealed primer. I've got ammo cans buried in the back with sealed 5.56 primers. Really curious if it's too early to start the stockpile for my son as well.
Also there is no "ammo thread?" so not exactly sure where to put this.
Once the ammo is stocked, would a takedown Ruger 10/22 Silent SR be overkill for my son's first rifle when he turns.........I don't know........4 or 5?
