Question Best Sites to Buy Ammo Online

Wolkenflieger said:
I have an FFL03 and COE and as someone wrote, it makes buying ammo like living in a free state! I have an Ammo+ membership with Target Sports USA. They usually stock my preferred 9mm and .22 brands.

Can't beat shipping right to your door, and no excise tax or FFL handling fee.

This is the way
 
Outdoor Limited has had what I needed. Free shipping over $200

Also, check out these guys: https://deleonrxgunsandammo.com/

Great prices, nice to deal with. They're not fast, but they are reliable in my experience. Multiple ammo orders and one firearms order, no troubles. They are a drop shipper, which have a bad rap, but never any troubles with these guys. However, DO READ their returns policies.

I second these guys. They are super nice and helpful. Not very fast but they have good prices on military surplus rifles ammo.

It used to buy a couple of cases of shotshells from Roger’s Sporting Goods.

The good old days of ordering it and having the nosy UPS driver ask why I had so much ammo being delivered. He probably hated 2014.

Ammunition - Your one stop shop for Shotshells, Centerfire and Rimfire | Rogers Sporting Goods

I remember having UPS drop it off at my job in LA county. The driver would always be like 'What's in here that so heavy?' ;)

I've actually never bought ammo online before and was looking for some recommended sites. Please share which places you've had good experiences with and which places one should avoid!

Velocity
 
I prefer velocity and it's my go to places for the simplicity but there are two minor issues about velocity that a new user needs to be aware of:
1. They usually prefer fedex so if fedex sucks at your area (it was the case for more than a year until recently), you'll have to email customer support to make sure they ship your package via UPS and you'll have to do that for every order.
2. They don't necessarily have the best price or even the largest selection if that's your thing. Also you need to make sure you have over $200 for the free shipping.

Good things about velocity are: 1. Great service and reliable shipping. 2. No tax (or tax is included) so makes it easier to calculate how much before you checkout

Targetsports usa is also good but they require a membership to ship for free which you'll likely save enough but it is still an up front cost. Due to membership and tax, it's actually super annoying to see the price jump up after you put in the cart because their ammo+ price doesn't include tax so the cpr is never correct. However they usually have more selection and can sometimes be cheaper than velocity.

They do offer free shipping for bulk orders, without membership, FWIW.
 
I have been seeing better pricing for true shot ammo than for targetsports ammo+ now. Especially for my most shot caliber, 9mm.

If they are as reliable, I’m letting my ammo+ membership expire this year.

Here is a screenshot on blazer 9mm 115 grain for a case; I think free shipping and no taxes charged, possibly. No membership required.

Not great but not bad for the current market prices

True, but my prices at target sports are higher right now. They are reliable, but their pricing is higher than other sites now, even with membership.

Not apples to apples, but federal American eagle 115gr was 29.4¢/rd as of earlier this week with ammo+ membership. Plus they add sales tax.
 
Not sure if said but 9mm went up within the last month. I bought some in oct was 215 otd. Then in Jan it went to about 235 otd then last month went to get another case it was 300 otd.

I was price shocked cause a week earlier it was still 235. Checked online and you lost places were around 28 cents a round plus tax. Even true shot was 28
