Has anyone ever tried to see how much .22 they can carry in magazines?

You think about the true SHTF and if you are the guy with 1000 rounds of .22 against a small group rocking 200 rounds of 9mm total it would be an interesting gun fight.

For me SHTF is a great way to market stuff to sell that will probably never be used lol but I'll bite. SHTF & I have no time other than to grab a bag & run choosing from what is in my collection.

Providing that's the case, I'm taking my Kel Tec PMR & CMR with about 4k rounds of 22 WMR. Ammo weighs roughly 9 lbs. per 1,000 rounds. The combo gives me 4 magazines that interchange. I can and do carry the pistol with 3 extra magazines with no effort daily <--120 rounds. I can carry the two Kel-tecs in an LSU back pack with ammo and carry my Marlin bolt gun in hand staying relatively nimble.

I mean this is all in theory right. I have SBR's & AR style stuff that I would leave just because of the amount of ammo I can carry & having the option of three different firearms. My peanut brain says I'll be ok with this combo. Everything and everyone I don't know is a threat, so I'm assuming I will scavenge a weapon in route while trying to beat the high score.
