    Anyone recommend any? Is Ammunition Store reputable?

    USACsales (limited but good prices when/if they got what you need)
    AimSurplus
    JGsales
    MidwayUSA
    PalmettoState (just don't be in a hurry to get it)

    Done business with all of those for ammuntion and/or parts, no complaints.

    Gunbot.net is a good resource for pricing.

    I was thinking about driving over there today.
    What are the prices on 9mm, 380, and 357 like?

    Their in-store price list is different than their on-line prices. I make it over there once a month or so, and I haven't seen .380 in months. They generally have plenty of 9mm. You might want to call before heading over to make sure they have the caliber(s) that you need/want before making the trek.

    I have shot all of their different types of ammo... new manufacture, reman, and "blaster", which is reman ammo with cases that haven't been polished. I have seen more issues with their ammo (mainly rounds that were seated too deep) than the major commercial manufacturers (remington, speer, PPU). However, during the panic they were one of the few places where you could reliably get ammo. Their prices got pretty high during the panic, and have not come down in parity with Wal-Mart or Academy. If you buy enough of the reman in bulk, you can get close to the price of new Monarch brass.

    All of the above plus,

    Copes Distributing
    Wideners
    Ammo To Go
    Selway Armory (I've used them for the first time recently and was really happy with service)
    Sportsman's Guide

    There are more, but that's my short list.


    I use gunbot.com (as mentioned) and gun-deals.com most of the time when looking for the best deals. Most of the vendors there are good, however their are a few that will pop up from time to time that I never heard of. Usually if the deal sounds good, I'll go and check it out and check on the shipping charges. You are going to find that the lesser known vendors deals aren't so good once you factor in shipping.

    Thanks for the info.
    The website shows they are out of almost everything. I wanted 9mm and 380.
    I'll give them a call later.

    I have used the following on line stores with no problems. The * indicates my preferred companies due to lower prices and shipping cost.

    Midway (A little high on the Shipping)
    SGAmmo* (Fast shipping)
    Palmetto State Armory* (A little slow on the shipping, but good sale prices)
    Cabelas* (Pretty good all around)
    Ammunition to Go ( A little high, plus state tax)
    Ammunition Depot
    Target Sports USA
    Sportsman's Guide* (Decent prices, fast shipping)
    Underwood Ammo* (Really fast and cheap shipping)
    Graf's* (Not much in stock, but cheap shipping when they do)
    MidSouth Shooters Supply
    Lucky Gunner (Prices are kinda high right now)
    Georgia Arms (Good prices, but shipping can get expensive if you don't live in the Eastern Zone) (Texas is not)
    Gander Mountain (Kind of expensive all around unless you can catch a sale)

    Does anyone use the LAX ammo? I've gotten bulk amounts of remanufactured rounds quickly. They were well priced and well made rounds (I went through them all).

    I have a several thousand rounds of their 180gr .40s&w. Seems to shoot pretty well, no malfunctions after 500 or so rounds.

    Only reason why I dont buy ammo from Aim or Wideners is because of their shipping prices. $28 to ship one spam can, no thanks. I paid $45 for a crate of brase 7.62x39 at wideners. I try to find some one out of state and close.

    Went by earlier.
    They are pretty low on everything. Just a tiny amount of 9mm. No 380 at all. Lots of 40 and 223. Some misc stuff like 30Carbine and hunting calibers.

    SGammo is GTG and Palmetto is also GTG. The local dealers in SA are still crazy high on there prices. I makes me wonder if there ammo is made of gold. I usually hit up Academy for ammo.

    I prefer Midway USA. Their shipping can be steep, but they never hiked their ammo prices more than two or three dollars. Midway sent me 2,000 rounds of .22 LR since November 2013. Midway kept me in the game when Walmart, Academy, Dick's, Cabela's, and Bass Pro Shops fell flat on their collective a$$es.
