Ted, "Conundrum" clearly establishes in dialog that the Galaxy-class starships carry 250 torpedoes, not 275. The 275 number is from the non-canon tech manual. This is what Worf says:
WORF: I have completed a survey of our tactical systems. We are equipped with ten phaser banks, two hundred and fifty photon torpedoes, and a high capacity shield grid.
You can confirm the dialog at Chrisse's Transcripts Site: http://www.chakoteya.net/NextGen/214.htm

Oh another thing, I'm deleting the bit about the saucer section containing the majority of the impulse power since there is nothing in BoBW that states that. Here's the dialog, again from Chrissie's Transcripts:
SHELBY: There is one other recommendation I'd like to make, Commander. Separate the saucer section. Assign a skeleton crew to create a diversion RIKER: We may need the power from the saucer impulse engines. SHELBY: But it would give them more than one target to worry about. RIKER: It's too great a risk.
Riker just thinks it's too risky, and he says they might need the power from the saucer impulse engines, but he does not quantify this. --Mike 02:01, 1 November 2012 (EDT)
- But it's a risk specifically because of the power loss. --Ted C 06:22, 1 November 2012 (EDT)
