Few hundred rounds of 243 and a mould to make silver bullets in case zombies morph into vampires. I have seen movies where that stuff can happen.

My count is 25 people will be at my place straight away. I have land and grow some food and enlarging on it all the time. They don't know I have preps but will be there. Not so bad as I accept it and have tried to incorporate the numbers in my thinking. Eg I run 12 chooks but with a rooster I have the ability to run much more in 25 weeks could be up to another 30. Same with veges. Unfortunately it will take longer to build up the sheep. At least the adults that may come are paramedic, cop, carpenter, hunter and brewer food preserver.

I think it is more a quetion of which one first . Canning is much better long term but is quite expensive to start as you need a lot of mason jars or equivalent. Once you have canned all you want and start to cycle through it the on going cost is about $1 a lid. Only ever reuse lids for non canning purposes as botulism is not your friend. I canned some sauerbraten sauce at xmas( wife's old family recipe) it tastes great 10 months later and did some spaghetti meat sauce a few weeks ago and it is the same as when canned. My favourite dehydrated food is mushrooms. When they come on special I dry 2 kegs. Zip lock and use as required. Do it in a ventilated area as it can smell a bit
