We have lots of new shooters buying ammo & we are so happy to welcome you to the shooting sports community! One thing to keep in mind is similar named calibers are not interchangeable. Please make sure to look at the barrel on your firearm for the correct caliber & order accordingly!

9mm Luger is not 9mm Makarov
357 Sig is not 357 Mag
45 ACP is not 45 GAP
38 Super is not 38 Special
223 Rem. is not 222 Rem.
6.5 Grendel is not 6.5 Creedmoor
Blanks are not actual live ammo

We understand that when you see ammo come into stock you want to purchase as quickly as possible as ammo is selling out in moments. Please make sure you confirm that caliber you are purchasing will work in your firearm, as all sales are final.

"With so many kinds of firearms and types of ammunition, it’s not always easy to match the proper ammunition to your handgun correctly—but getting it right is critical. If you match the wrong ammunition to your gun, you can cause an explosion, injury or worse!
To match the proper ammunition to your handgun correctly:
  • Read the specific caliber designation on the side of the barrel or slide. Match that designation exactly. For example, if it says “.45 GAP,” you cannot use “.45 ACP.”
  • Carefully read the information on the lid of the ammunition box. Always check whether it’s a magnum load to ensure it matches the data on the barrel or slide.
  • Finally, match the information on the barrel to the information on the cartridge before you shoot. If in doubt, ask a more experienced shooter or a qualified gunsmith."
 
...should have prefaced it with "IF you can find ammunition to purchase..."

But yes, extremely good information especially for the newbies. We don't want our new brothers and sisters in arms to hurt themselves because they didn't know any better!
