Thanks. I honestly never thought about that but I'll have to look into it. I'm guessing you've never had any trouble but I always worry about the quality of the ammo I would be used like that i.e. how it was stored and taken care of etc. Because my ammo tends to sit for months at a time and I won't shoot in bulk until I take a class.
None at all. Granted I stay away from reloads though. I’ve gotten 9mm for 8 to .16 c per round, 45acp as low as .16c per round and .22lr as low as .02 per round. I’ve traded some 9mm 124g for 38 special, 7.62 for.556.

Yup. I'll admit I was curious as well to find places locally "just in case" I needed to buy some bulk ammo. Typically I'll buy a case of ammo a month in advance of a class to allow time for shipping/delays.

Ya that's his plan but wanted to see what other options are out there.

a few mouse clicks and you’ll get it in a few days. Buying online I’ve found has almost always been cheaper
Don't shoot the messenger. He's not computer literate hence why I'm asking and not him (older guy, doesn't even use Amazon). Plus he had concerns about getting it by this weekend. He'd rather just drive somewhere and pick it up like he does his groceries.
LOL.... No worries.... I have those friends as well......
