I am sure this gets mentioned a lot but that doesn’t change the fact that it is true.
.22LR ammo would be extremely valuable for trading material as well as to shoot in your own rifles and pistols.
I’ve heard that too. But I’ve also heard that it is very risky to use bullets to trade with because they so easily could be turned against you. I’d guess that if a person decided to trade with bullets, then you should really trust to whom you are trading them.
