Where can I buy .45acp? (any jacketed ammo okay)

[357-8-times]

The only .45acp ammo I see in stock online is shot shells and hydrashocks at about $1/shot!

Online suggestions anyone?

 

[CDW4ME]

45 acp can be found on Gunbroker.

I recommend Wallyworld or gunshows. Online prices have gone nuts on .45 plinking ammo plus you have to pay hazmat shipping.

plus you have to pay hazmat shipping

Really? I paid that on primers once, but not ammo.

 

[Walkalong]

No hazmat on ammo, just primers or powder.

 

[Cannonball888]

I stand corrected. Doesn't make sense though. Ammo contains primers and powder.

Try these contacts. In my area of Florida, ammo is hard to come by, even at Wal-Mart.

or http://www.grafs.com/ammo/52

I have dealt with both of these companies and they have never wronged me.

On Gunbroker Wolf is commanding $20+s/h per box?!

Fearless, the only thing purchasable at either link:
graf has shotshells at $1.35/shot
midway has a backorder purchase option on a 20-box of Buffalo Bore for $1.40/shot!

That is insane to use for plinking!

Unfortunately there is no Wallyworld or local gunshows where I live

Cabela's should have some in next week on line. They have it in stock in most stores. Bass Pro Shop has it in stock for a whole bunch (with shipping around $.90/ per)

Might be time to think about reloading...

45 ACP is a particularly easy caliber to load. You can get all the equipment you need for under $200 if you buy Lee. My cost is around 12 cents per round IIRC.

I use a 4-hole turret system and cal load around 150 rounds an hour taking my time.

Components are a little scarce right now, but you can find them if you look hard enough.

Try Wideners

I got a butt load of Wolf from them recently, and they seemed to be well stocked.

WOOPS; should've checked before posting.


I would check in with wideners often, though.
Seems like they restock more often than the huge sites.

Where can I buy .45acp? (any jacketed ammo okay)

October 2008.

I live in a metro area of about 250,000 people and no store has ammo on the shelf. It's gone from bad to worse. On the bright side, the range is empty.

Sure no problem. Where are those large pistol primers?.. oh wait there aren't any.

 

[TexasRedneck]

Primers CAN be had - you gotta be patient an' surf LOTS of websites. Don't ask how ah know...

On the loaded ammo - you'll have better luck makin' runs at the stores than ya will online, in my experience. Since I started handloading again, though, I hardly pay 'em any mind.

 

[SigLaw]

Place a backorder with Cabela's. They do not charge until they ship. When they get it you get it.

Anyone find somewhere in-stock at less than $20/box for Wolf?
