Bulk ammo

[Shadow01]

So where is everyone getting their bulk ammo from? Mail order option? Good local options within 30 miles of Lafayette?

Watch the ammo thread for the best places to order it online.
i order mostly from https://www.targetsportsusa.com/ these days. I used to use sgammo more.

...for heads up about online deals from other INGO members.

You can also search for deals on ammoseek.com. Be sure to pay attention to reviewer ratings for sellers to weed out bad apples, and modify your search to adjust the shipping cost option to either >6 or >8. You can usually get free shipping at $200 or $250 from most of the decent online sellers.

Most brick and mortar local gun stores and big box sports stores seem to get their ammo at retail prices from online sellers and then mark it up 10 - 20%. Most ammo at gun shows is ridiculous. Not sure the last time I purchased ammo in person from a store.

I looked for the ammo thread, but came up empty. Not sure why. Thanks for posting the link.

It's not hard to find pallets of ammo. The hard part is paying for them...

Not if we do a group purchase, where everyone in the group chips in to help me purchase a pallet of ammo.

Is anywhere still doing drums of ammo?

FIFY

I found drums here https://www.grafs.com/catalog/product/productId/88117

Seems like people penciled out the drums or pallets and it didn’t save enough to justify the trouble. Butimay be misremembering

There is not a huge difference in price between several cases and a pallet.
The last Winchester drums we have had like those were almost the exact same price as buying individual cases of 20 round boxes. They still sell, but mostly for the novelty I think.
I think I might still have an empty one of those drums in the warehouse somewhere.

Does anybody have a good opinion on how often you should cycle out your ammo? Is there a year count as a rule of thumb?

Shoot each round once.

Seriously though, if stored properly it'll out live you.

The ammo from the 40’s still,works good. So…

Sounds like you don't shoot enough if you need to ask that.

Lucky Gunner is a good spot.
I generally just buy in small quantities around town as I see them.

I have sks ammo that was manufactured in the 50s and it shoots fine.
