    Where are people buying their ammo these days?

    For mail order ammo where are you guys going these days?

    I have used Cheaper Than Dirt and The Ammoman in the past. I am also looking at Ammo To Go and SGA. Does anyone have any recommendations?

    Personally, I like Palmetto State Armory.

    What kind of ammo are you looking for? Rifle or Pistol? Training or Defense?

    For rifle training ammo, I've been buying 1200 round cases of IMI XM193 from Wideners (http://www.wideners.com/itemdetail.c...dir=18|830|845). Good stuff, and it's about $0.28 per round shipped.

    For pistol training ammo, lately I've been hitting up Palmetto State Armory. They have 9mm 115gr Federal Champion for $9.99 per 50.

    As far as defense ammo, I look for whoever has what I want in stock, and at the lowest price. I (fortunately) don't use a lot of SD ammo, so I haven't purchased it in a while.

    for plinking rounds I use gun-deals.com to find the best prices.

    If you looking for SD/HD ammo, SGAmmo and AmmoToGo usually have a good selection of LE stuff.

    I'll second SGAmmo for SD rounds. They usually have very good pricing and the good stuff in stock.

    I've also used Ammunitiontogo in the past for SD round had had a good experience, but they seem to be out of stock of what I want recently.

    Aside from SD rounds, my guns havn't seen a round factory ammunition since 2008 (except in 7.62X39).

    I agree and also recommend Natchez.
    Palmetto has lower shipping costs.

    www.glensoutdoors.com

    had some good luck with Glens outdoors in addition to most of the websites mentioned already.

    Just have to constantly be checking and wait for a deal, it pays to have a stockpile

    Awesome - just ordered 2400 rounds.

    I usually buy from Palmetto with excursions to cheaper than dirt, ammo to go, and a few others. Just ordered 500 rounds of 9mm Winchester Ranger-T 147gr JHP (RA9T) from SGammo. They've got a good selection of HD/SD rounds.
