Very new to this, what are price points I should aim for with 9mm/40 Target Ammo

[ZJPierce]

I should have my LTC by the end of next week. I am certain I am getting a Shield 9mm, but also will have a 40 to shoot. In terms of Range Ammo, what price points should I look for in 50ct, 100ct, 200ct, 1000ct for it to be a "good" price?

I tried searching, but I want to get some recent data as I know prices change. I want to find the bargain prices but just looking for some averages so I know when something is too high, just right, or BUY BUY BUY.

Thanks

This will give you an idea what ammo costs mail order. Of course, since I assume you're in Mass. ordering via the 'net is a very limited option and that's a different discussion.

Visit you local gun store. Visit Walmart, Cabela's, Dick's (ugh) and others.

For 9mm I usually pay abut 10-11dollers for a box of 50 at wal-mart.

Collector's gallery has Federal 9mm 1000 rounds for $229, that's a really good price. Rileys has the best prices around I think, take a road trip and stock up before the next Obama scare.

Try http://ammoseek.com as a benchmark.

If you spend more than $0.25/round for factory 9mm you're wasting money. If you don't mind steel/aluminum cased (I know I don't [mind]) then you can get under $0.20/round. I buy Federal Aluminum Cased FMJ for $9.95/50rds at Walmart. Get it in the great free state of NH and it's tax free.

Not sure how I missed this, I swear I tried searching...
Thanks!

Do you need a NH license to buy ammo?

Walmart will sell ammo to MA residents with an FID or LTC, or a NH driver's license if from NH.

Rileys has the cheapest ammo prices without having to search Walmarts, and won't ask to see your MA LTC.
