It goes without saying that the current demand for ammunition is beyond anyone's expectations. This weekend my father-in-law wanted to shoot his .22s and not a single store in the area had .22 ammo in stock. In fact, the owner of Dick's Sporting Goods at the landing said folks line up an hour or two before opening and almost sprint to the ammo when the store opens.

With Kelly's Gun Sales opening this last month I've been looking at my different lines to get ammunition. At each of the distributors I can get ammunition through everything popular seems to be out of stock and it sells out the second it comes in stock (E.g. .223/5.56, .22LR, 9mm, .45 ACP, .40 S&W). It seems to me that the best strategy for purchasing ammunition right now is not waiting for it to come in stock but rather buying it before it is in stock, but not too many places will let you do that. We can't exactly stroll down to Dick's Sporting Goods and buy the ammo from them before they get it. This is where I'm going to try to meet a need and offer something different. You can buy ammunition from me at retail prices, not the inflated ones as reflected by the current best prices available.

Here's how it works, check out some of the links for ammunition I have below. Ammunition can be purchased now and then once it comes in stock it has your name on it and ships to you. I guess you could think of it like buying a video game before the release date...sorta. At any rate, I have some decent deals below; I'm not a big chain store so I don't get the same prices from my distributors, but I am trying to pass on some savings to you. After each link I put the round count and approximate cost per round before tax and shipping.

The best information I currently have is that orders may be filled in the 2-4 month time frame. There are ETAs listed on some of the products, but those do not accurately correspond with when your order could be filled. People who ordered in January are getting their orders filled now. Your ammunition will remain on back order until the order is filled or you cancel the order and get a refund.

This is just a sampling of what I can get, please look around the site or ask me if there is something you want but don't see. To be very clear, I don't have any of this in stock and I don't expect to for a long time.

If you make a purchase you will get an email within a day or so letting you know the ammo is on back order for you and then you'll get an email update once it comes in stock and ships. In the rare situation that you should decide you've waited too long for the ammo, if it has not shipped yet I can offer a refund.

Indeed the shipping is UPS ground and it is actual shipping from my distributor in the midwest. I don't make any money on the shipping; it goes straight to UPS.

I've added some .308. Also you can check out everything .308 that I can get [urlhttp://store.kellysgunsales.com/catalog/search/finderResult.asp?spectype=Caliber&CatType=sub&category=11]here[/url]. If there is an ETA in the next 4-8 weeks it's pretty safe to buy it in my opinion.
Best,

Alrighty, placed my order. Let's see how long it takes!

Way to go setting this up, Kelly. I'd rather do it this way than waste time and gas driving all over just in case someone happens to have some. Thanks!

If you come across any, please let me know.

Alright, I've got lots of interest on this and I've answered lots of questions, I'll summarize how it works here:
You can buy ammunition from me at the normal retail prices, sales tax and shipping apply. This ammunition is being sold before I have it in stock so your order will be immediately placed on back order and it will stay on back order until: it is filled and the ammunition is shipped to you at a large savings over current prices or you cancel your order and receive a refund.

Many have taken advantage of the opportunity and I'd encourage you to check it out and shop around.

Thanks for setting this up Kelly.

Just ordered three 525 round bricks of Federal. Now to see how long it takes...But at least I know I'm in the queue.

Thanks for your order! Yes I saw it come through. Like I said your order will exist until it is filled or you let me know you'd like to cancel it for a refund. I bet it will be a few months, we'll have to wait and see. I'm hopeful that soon I'll be able to get some things in stock.
