In my case, when it comes to .45 and 30/30 rounds I only expect to shoot around 500 rounds per year combined. I'll go through a lot more .22 rounds but .22 ammo is cheap anyway. My 30/30 is my hunting rifle and my .45 well that's my .45..... I'm always looking for C&R firearms but do not expect to put a lot of rounds through them. I'll probably need to hand load hard to find ammo at some point (which will be a different problem entirely).

So, for all practical purposes and with limited space to use for setup (and a limited budget), I don't want to have to have a ton of equipment that is seldom used.
