The biggest request came from UC San Diego, which said it needed 5,000 new 5.56-millimeter caliber rifle rounds to replace ones used in trainings

Not sure how many officers they have or what the training regimen looks like, but 5,000 does not seem like that much to me. Most folks I know go through 120-240 rounds in one range trip and, by picking up deals, end up with at least 1,000 - 2,000 rounds at home. Most of the best deals on ammo are for boxes of 1,000 or more.
