This and this are worth reading. Also my comment about dealing with the ammo shortage of last winter is on the main page. Man that was a dumb thing to do. Space was at a real premium in our cars for the drive but a shoe box full of .38 would have given me peace of mind. The real kicker is that I had the ammo and just didn't bring it. Oh well it was a busy time and we had lots of stuff on our minds.
In any case having a couple hundred rounds per gun is probably reasonable advice for someone who is just getting started or is cautious but not full bore paranoid. Probably enough ammo for anything other than a Mad Max scenario.

I recommend a couple of thousand rounds per caliber and at least two firearms that fire each caliber. Anyone owning a firearm should be trained in it's use. The NRA teaches basic firearms classes which I highly recommend. A couple of hundred rounds is sufficient for someone who's going to put their gun in a closet and never use it. It's not enough for practice or even a Katrina sized event if you got into a firefight with a small group intent on taking what you have, much less Argentinian. I would go with as many guns and as much ammo as possible. At least two thousand rounds per caliber, maybe ten.
