Between agents and contractors there are about 360,000 people working for DHS. 200 million rounds works out to about 500 round a person. Not an unrealistic amount for an entire year. Heck I can easily blow off 500 rounds in just a weekend at the range.

Fair point TBH, Its one of those bits of news I think people often read too much into, thinking its something sinister when its probably nothing much.
And Im betting that 200 million rounds of ammo is nothing compared to the amount of ammo in circulation amongst non-law enforcement gun owners in the U.S. Maybe DHS just want to even up the numbers abit.....just in case
