So if I plan for the life of my barrels considered hoarding? When I have a rifle build, I acquire all the components (brass, primer, bullets, powders, etc.) for the rifle's life.
Life is all about preparation; how one prepares for volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity in life or challenges ahead are individualistic.
As
@Shane Lindsey noted, he is simply feeding what he has. But for the other side of the spectrum, three 8-pounders are hoarding. Frankly, he (or anyone else) does not need to justify his purchase to the ill-prepared.
IBTL!
