Yeah the media likes to hype it up when someone is found with "a thousand rounds of ammunition," but the reality is that's just the common denomination it's sold in. It's like saying someone was found with 12 beers... well, yes, because they're sold in 12 packs.
1k rounds is really nothing. It's basically harder to buy in increments smaller than that, at least for 9mm.
