Last one did well, so let’s try again.
You know the drill: ask questions, maybe get serious answers.

10 makes sense but why more than that? That’s more than you can carry I’d guess
I have 28 loaded PMAGs in a 50 cal ammo can. It’s easy to throw in the car and then I don’t have to reload on range day
Consumables and learned from the 90's that they can go away. So you need to not only plan on what you can carry today, but what you may need for 20 years from now.
I've purchased 6 PPS Classic magazines every year for the last decade. Why? I knew eventually it would go out of production and 20 years from now I don't want to be my friend that carries a P7 and pays over $100 for a used magazine when he can even find them. Now if I have a mag shit the bed, I've got another 50 or so still in packaging. And I did have that happen this year. I came across my first mag that had feeding issues in multiple guns.
I've purchased 10 P99/PPQM1/SW99/MR9 mags every year for almost the last 20 years for the same reason.
Just in the last month I've purchased an additional 12 Okay Surefeeds and 12 steel Duramags plus picked up my standard two P-Mags per week at my LGS.
Magazines are a consumable. Train with them and you'll occasionally break one or wear one out.
