35,000 is a good amount, but you can never really have too much. If this economic crisis really does turn out to be TEOTWAWKI, then as someone else stated, not only will lots of ammo be needed for survival, but it will likely turn out to be one of the most valuable barter items in existence. People with lots of ammo will come out of such a crisis wealthy.

I know I don't have anywhere near enough, but I'm working on it.
