I didn't know I could buy ammo direct from CCI...

[JAS-SH]

Went there to check on something and they have a store set up. Just bought a brick (10 boxes of 50) of .22 Magnum 30 grain VMAX for drum roll.......

$20 per box and free shipping! That's pre-COVID prices. Cheapest at ammoseek - $39.99 plus shipping

The catch (there's always a catch) ships in 15-20 days. I can live with that because of the price and also I'm not out of ammo.

Best,

JAS

Yep, been buying directly from them for a while now. I just wish they had some of their better grade 9mm for sale. I try to buy once a week from them. I wish they'd remove that 10 box limit. Might save a bundle on shipping charges.

For awhile their direct site was the only place you could get the 22LR rimfire stuff, but the qty limits plus shipping made it a bit costly. Still, I bought on there twice, SV is still the best budget subsonic ammo around.

I should find a link. I havent seen a box of 40gr Subsonic HP's in about 5 years

It's awesome, the stuff is LETHAL and has almost identical ballistics and POI as the SV, at least in my CZ 455, so I can zero and dial in the DOPE at half the price.

Sometimes they actually are not the cheapest; especially if one looks at shipping costs. Though that SHP just posted is very cheap. You have to watch their page constantly as the stock goes in and out very quickly.

I actually bought two bricks, wouldn't wanna run out

It's more the availability more than the price. The convenience is also another reason. When you buy from them, you know it's in stock and it won't be backordered for months.

Sometimes a brick doesn't last a week. Depending on if the kids are over.

Fair enough, but this stuff is only for critters! The kids can shoot up the Aguila or Federal bucket crap all they want

I buy the SV and the Quiet for the young one (4 years old).

 

[DaveCo]

They also sometimes have the plastic boxes 100ct of SV, sometimes 10 box limit, other times no limit. Get over $99 and free shipping.

This is definitely the best small game (squirrel) round there is. Been using for a long time and it’s a wicked hunting bullet imo

You can also buy direct from Federal.

STOP TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THIS....you're going to ruin it for the rest of us who can keep a secret.

I ordered on the 30th, and it just shipped today.

That's actually quick for them. It usually take 10 or more days.

That's too late now.

I ordered on October 30th. It's already on its way and will be here tomorrow. That's a 6 day - order to delivery day...

Actually, no. Telling people to buy direct DOES NOT affect production rates. What buying direct DOES is it forces every damn gouger retailer to stop gouging us.

Yep. Thank you to the OP for the heads-up.

I have bought from them a few times. Last time I ordered a brick of Quiet (what I really needed) and a brick of Standard. Ordered both so it was over $100 and free shipping and both showed in stock.

Of course I received a brick of Standard a few weeks later. Had to email to find out the quiet was back ordered (although it was still showing available on the website) and they charged me shipping on the single brick.

Not very happy about the whole thing (emailed them but zero response) but at least they have ammo available at a decent price.

 

[acudaowner]

sadly they will sell ammo but not primers go figure .

 

[BullGear]

Just got my second order of the week. The trick is to order more than $100 to save on shipping.

Really wish they would restock semi auto quiet. I was able to get standard subs, sv and segmented but damn I can't seem to find semi auto quiet.

What's the difference in this semi auto quiet and the regular quiet ammo?

It cycles in semi autos lol

The quiet in a bolt gun or single shot will be quieter.

Federal, Blazer, Speer, and CCI all sell on their website. I think they are owned by the same company. Federal ships (or at least did) for free if you ordered over $150 worth.Their prices aren’t the lowest I have see, but it’s sometimes the only place you can find less popular rounds. Plan a head because the few times that I have ordered from Federal it took about 2 weeks to get to me. AmmoSeek is the site I use at first and for 9mm & 45acp it works pretty well for me, but for rimfire if you are looking for the higher end match type ammunition it doesn’t come up with very much. It does work pretty well with the regular (CCI, Wolf,Federal….) ammo though.
