I like this place, Natchez Shooter Supplies. For 9mm they have Blazer at 5.99/box case of 10 boxes. Shipping is about 10 bucks. Reasonably good for a web store: http://www.natchezss.com

Alright, I'll admit it. I know nothing about ammunition, other than what size the gun says it wants and where to load it. Is this pretty much practice ammo or is it fairly decent?

Natchez carries lots of brands of ammo, so you can get cheap ammo extra-cheap there, or expensive ammo not-quite-so expensive. Their prices are not necessarily the lowest, it pays to shop around, but they're usually pretty good.

Lately it seems like I've found better deals at Wal-mart or Dick's. Shipping is a killer with ammo; it's a shame bullets have to be heavy. That's one reason I like Ammoman.com: the price includes shipping so you don't have to go through the order checkout rigamarole and do math to figure out if you're getting a good deal or not.

I order frequently from Natchez and they leave it at the door. After hauling in a case of 45 ACP by wife said " What's in these boxes, lead?" er yes dear lead, brass, copper, gun powder. That lead to well pick it up yourself from now on. 34+ plus years of happy marriage I responded with, you guessed it, Yes Dear.

Oh, she did discuss me with the UPS person months later when asked if I was police or an federal agent, her response was "no , he is just a gun nut" I prefer competitive shooter and NRA instructor, but you get what you get in life !
