    Thanks for sharing. HST is fantastic defense ammo, but has been getting harder and harder to find. Under $1/round is still cheaper than a lot of the other defense ammo out there.

      They had the 124 gr version just this week, but I see that's gone already. Prices on the SD ammo they do have keeps inching up by the week. WOW!

        Ammunition Depot has been really good to me when it comes to ammo donations. It's not what you've seen me test so far, but what they have sent that will be tested at some point this Spring.

        On pricing, each new shipment costs them a bit more than the last and I think they may be willing to pay a bit more to have something to sell. I think some other online guys refuse and just remain out of stock.

        I too miss the days of $25 a box 9mm Gold Dots and HSTs. I bet they'll be back, but I have no idea WHEN.

            Exactly. I see they still have some SD .45acp stuff, and the one I like has increased a dollar per box of 50 just this week. This ammo "Craze" is something!

                Well, I'll never apologize for Ammunition Depot pricing ever again. Let the scalping begin from none other than Ammo to Go. http://www.ammunitiontogo.com/produc...m-hollow-point

                $59.95 a box? Really? Pass.

                  Ammunition Depot has it back in stock now for $41.97 a box. I bought 3 boxes (150 rnds) from Kyle's Gun Shop a little over a week ago for $28.99 per box. Shipping included, it was a little less than $100 total and I had it in my hands a few days later. It's out of stock now though.

                    Kyle's is one of my favorite places to buy ammo.

                    Very interesting...

                      Yeah, he is now one of mine also. From now on, his website will be the first place I look for anything gun related. Has what he says he has, ships fast, doesn't rape you on the cost or shipping, excellent experience.

                        I just cannot bring myself to shop at AmmunitionTo Go OR AmmunitionDepot. Both are two of the biggest price gougers on the internet.

                        I was looking for was 2 boxes of Federal HST 147 gr 9mm ammo from AmmunitionDepot BUT 102.00 with shipping? Are you kidding me? They wanted 17.00+ for shipping when the actual cost was only 12.00.

                        SGAmmo had the same ammo for 34.00 / box + 12.00 shipping.

                        These retailers are one of the main reasons for the ridiculous prices. They are feeding on the public and it is shameful. If we keep giving them our money they will keep gouging us.

                        I had an email exchange yesterday with Scott Blick, Managing Partner of ammunitiondepot.com and let him know exactly what I thought. He stated that, " I thought you should know that we are the cheapest on the internet." Then I led him to the SGAmmo site and he said, "Ok, I'll give that round to you ....." REALLY....how can you make the statement that you are the cheapest and knowingly NOT be?

                        MOST internet retailers are price gougers.

                          I hear you and I about fell out of my chair when I saw the 147gr HST at Kyle's for $28.99 + shipping per box a couple weeks ago. That is as cheap, if not cheaper, than it was here locally the last time I saw any on shelves, which was months ago. The night I ordered my 3 boxes he had a good bit in stock in 124gr, 124gr +p, 147gr, & 147gr +p, in both HST and Gold Dot. This was about midnight one night. The next morning when I looked it was all gone. I wandered if other online retailers snatched it up, marketed it up and relisted it on their websites, as the exact same ones myteriously showed up on at least one of them the next week. But with the demand the way it is, I sorta doubt that too.

                            It is not businesses that are doing the bulk of this. It is private individuals that are buying 10-15 grand worth every two weeks and reselling.

                            My last shipment of 45 and 9mm HST would have in the normal market lasted me a month. It sold out in three hours. It only lasted that long because I would not allow the big orders.

                            I was called several colorful names for doing ththis but at least the guys on my waiting list for the ammo got theirs or had the chance.
