The Ammo Depot tracks every caliber and load in your inventory. You can monitor quantity in real time, set a threshold that triggers a low-stock alert, record lot numbers and storage locations for compliance or precision shooting, and designate specific loads to specific firearms. When you log a range session, My Kit automatically deducts rounds fired from the correct ammo record.

​
Adding ammunition

Navigate to Ammo Depot in the sidebar and click Add ammo. Fill in the fields below and click Save.
​
caliber
string
required
The cartridge designation — for example, “9mm”, “5.56x45”, “.308 Win”, or “12 ga”. My Kit groups your inventory by caliber on the main list.
​
brand
string
required
The manufacturer — for example, “Federal”, “Hornady”, “Winchester”, or “Sig Sauer”.
​
product_line
string
The product line name — for example, “HST”, “Critical Defense”, “M193”, or “Gold Dot”. Helps you distinguish between loads from the same manufacturer.
​
grain
number
Bullet weight in grains — for example, 124 for a 124gr 9mm load.
​
bullet_type
string
The bullet construction: JHP, FMJ, FMJBT, OTM, SP, slug, buckshot, or other.
​
casing
string
Casing material: brass, steel, aluminum, nickel, or other. Useful when tracking range ammo vs. carry ammo.
​
purpose
string
default:"Training"
The intended use: Training, Carry/Defense, Match, or Hunt. Defaults to Training.
​
quantity
number
required
Current round count on hand. You can adjust this at any time with the +/- controls.
​
low_stock_threshold
number
When your quantity drops to or below this number, My Kit generates a Low stock action item on your dashboard. Leave blank to disable the alert for this load.
​
cost_per_round
number
Cost per individual round in dollars. My Kit uses this to show total inventory value and per-session cost estimates.
​
purchased_at
string
Purchase date for lot tracking and historical records.
​
lot_number
string
Manufacturer lot number. Essential for precision shooters who track load consistency across lots, and useful for recall tracking.
​
storage_location
string
Where this ammo is stored — for example, “Safe A, shelf 2”, “Ammo can #3”, or “Range bag”. Helps you locate the right box quickly.
​
product_url
string
A link to the product page for easy reordering.
​
notes
string
Freeform notes — velocity data, accuracy observations, restrictions, etc.

​
Adjusting quantity

You don’t need to edit a full ammo record just to update the round count. My Kit provides quick +/- controls on the Ammo Depot list for fast adjustments.
1

Find the ammo record

Go to Ammo Depot. Use the caliber filter or scroll to find the load you want to update.
2

Use the quantity controls

Click + to add rounds or − to subtract rounds. Each click adjusts the quantity by a set increment. My Kit floors the quantity at zero — it will never go negative.
You can also edit the quantity directly by opening the ammo record’s edit screen and changing the Quantity field.
When you log a range session and specify rounds fired for a given load, My Kit automatically deducts those rounds from the matching ammo record. You don’t need to adjust quantity manually after a session.

​
Setting a low-stock threshold

The low-stock threshold lets My Kit warn you before you run out of a critical load. When the quantity on hand reaches or drops below the threshold, a Low stock action item appears on your dashboard with the caliber, brand, and current count. To set a threshold, open the ammo record and fill in the Low stock threshold field with the minimum number of rounds you want to maintain. To disable the alert, clear the field and save.
A practical starting point: set the threshold to roughly one range session’s worth of rounds for training ammo, and to your full carry reload count for defensive loads.

​
Designating ammo to a firearm

You can link an ammo record to a specific firearm — useful when a particular load is dedicated to one platform, such as a carry load for a specific pistol or a precision handload for a bolt gun. To designate ammo to a firearm, open the ammo record’s edit screen, find the Designated firearm field, and select the firearm from the dropdown. The firearm must already exist in your Armory. When a load is designated to a firearm, My Kit shows that association on both the ammo record and the firearm’s detail view. When you log a range session and select that firearm, the designated ammo is pre-selected as a starting point.

​
Lot tracking and storage location

For precision shooting, competitive use, or compliance purposes, two fields help you keep detailed records: Lot number stores the manufacturer’s lot identifier exactly as it appears on the box. If you have multiple purchases of the same load from different lots, create a separate ammo record for each lot and note the lot number on each. Storage location is a freeform text field you can use however makes sense for your setup — cabinet names, shelf numbers, container labels, or any location scheme that works for you. There is no fixed format.
No. One record per load and lot is the right level of granularity. If you buy more boxes of the same lot, just increase the quantity on the existing record. Create a new record only when you have a different lot number or a meaningfully different load spec.
Deleting a range session restores the rounds that were deducted when the session was created. My Kit adds those rounds back to the corresponding ammo records automatically.
