Don't get excited. California being California, the politicians will find a way to circumvent this. I wouldn't put it past them to pass a law limiting Californians from possessing more than 20 rounds of ammo at a time.
They still have to undergo a background check for every ammo purchase - they may boost the fee to 25 bucks or more for each check.
