Posted By: Slipstream ammo purchase - where? - 01/20/24
I've been looking over my 5.56 inventory and have close to 1k on hand, with the components to build another, should I find the time to sit down at the bench. But without a progressive press, I'd rather purchase loaded ammo. So, I'm looking at making a purchase (and, yeah, I know prices are astronomically high right now) and having been looking at ammoseek. Most of the big names are running at around 50 cents a round (and higher), before shipping. I've never used any of those sites with the lowest prices, preferring to buy through well known suppliers in the past. Any recommendations? Some of those with the lowest prices could save a person up to $100 for a 1k purchase.

Thanks!

1K rounds?
Man you need to man up and add at least another 5 to 10K
SG Ammo would be a good place to start. But there are others.

This is a good suggestion. I bought from them until prices went through the roof, then a Dillon found its way here.

I use ammo seek. Read the reviews on the sellers right where you are looking at prices. If you are still concerned plug the seller into Google and search if they are legitimate. Usually it's pretty easy to see if BBB rates them or.if there are horror stories out there. I've bought from many sellers on ammoseek that I did this exercise with and haven't been scammed yet. Good luck on the purchase!

Thanks!

Keep in mind some of those with the lowest prices charge a hefty shipping fee. Been there.

Started looking at Recoil Gun Works. Free shipping on orders over $249. Might find a deal there.

Also good idea to check Bereli, a local distributor to me. But, they don't have customer pick up for locals yet.

Here's a good deal (free shipping) on 9mm 147 gr FMJ flat nose.

Have you bought from Bereli? Those are decent prices on ammo.

Yes. I've bought a lot of ammo from them. And firearm peripherals. And guess what, they actually answer the phone.

Bereli does not. I've never bought anything from them where I paid shipping. And not just because i'm local.

And neither do SamOlson's recommendations.

Good to know, thanks. I'm not local, but not far from them.
