New to this site but I found a small online site out of Missouri that ships and has market prices and a good inventory of a few calibers. I got my order in a few days and the shipping costs were about right. www.topgunammo.com.
Bass Pro is as bad if not worse. A real pain to buy a gun from them.Well, if that's the only way to get ammo from them then I guess I won't be buying any more ammo from Academy. If you've ever purchased a firearm from them, it's worse than buying one at wally world. I've only bought one from them, a Remington 597 in 22wmr a few years ago on clearance, and declared at the end of the transaction never again.
I bought two rifles from Bass Pro, only because they were on sale. After the first one, I said I wouldn’t do it again, but I did. I much prefer dealing with the local guys.Can't recall ever buying one from them, but I've come to the conclusion the big box stores may be ok for ammo, but not guns. I prefer a LGS for better service, better selection, and support a small local business in the process. It's gotten me some fair deals on guns, and dare I say more than my limit on ammo for being a good customer You're not going to get that at a bog box store, even if you know the guy/gal behind the counter.
Great deals many times makes u forget about bad experiences, or at least lessens that bad taste.I bought two rifles from Bass Pro, only because they were on sale. After the first one, I said I wouldn’t do it again, but I did. I much prefer dealing with the local guys.

They put a stop to the scalping. You can't buy ammo without buying a gun. Good for them! Kind of stinks when u sell a gun and don't have ammo to go with it.
Rosewood
The 9mm I bought in post #24 was a straight up purchase.....no gun involved.Good for them?
Buy a new gun every time you need ammo?
Academy sucks, IMO.
I suppose if you bought a new gun from them and they didn't have ammo to sell you for that new purchase you would still say the suck? Or would you be happy with that?Good for them?

Macon Academy. I was there today and let me tell you I was surprised. They didn't have hardly any ammo and very few guns. They did have shotgun shells, no buckshot. Very few pistols and rifles. But what was a bigger surprise was the clothing inventory. I bit they didn't have half of what they normally have and Christmas is not far off.
I went in the Macon Academy this evening after work..for a jump rope.! Checked the ammo aisle & behind the counter. Nada..NOTHING other than birdshot & 6.5 Creedmoor ? Guys behind the counter said they are getting it....but the same cast of characters are there at 6-7am(before doors open) EVERY day they get ammo shipments & they bring 2-3 with them to each buy their limits. They said they had a PALLET of 5.56 recently & by 2pm...it was GONE. I guess the working man doesn’t stand a chance these days! Good luck?
Dangit, hate I missed that great deal!!Midsouth offered a 500 rd case of Frontier XM193 with 10 mag for $429.99 yesterday while supplies lasted
