In this post, I’m doing a quick unboxing and overview of an ammo delivery I received from AmmoSquared. AmmoSquared is an ammo subscription-style service where you deposit a set dollar amount each month, and that balance is applied toward the ammo calibers and types you choose.
I’ve been using the service for several months now, mostly as a way to slowly build up a stockpile without having to think about it every paycheck.
With AmmoSquared, you choose:
You don’t always get to choose the exact manufacturer, but you do control the caliber and category. Ammo prices fluctuate based on market conditions, so the cost per round can vary slightly over time.
For most of my subscription, I was depositing $20 per month. In the last couple of months before this shipment, I bumped that up to $25 per month. I also prepaid shipping at $2.50 per month. Shipping itself is a flat $15 when you decide to send ammo out.
AmmoSquared ships ammo by the box, not individual rounds.
So if your balance equals, for example, 13 rounds of .223, they won’t ship partial boxes. Instead:
In my case, I had several calibers that were just under a full box, so I paid a small additional amount to round everything up and ship complete boxes.
This shipment was roughly 300 rounds total.
Most of what I received was .30-30, which makes up the bulk of my ammo stockpile since I don’t shoot it very often and like to keep some on hand.
Included in this shipment:
All of the ammo I chose was brass-cased. I didn’t opt for steel case or ultra-budget options — just standard, reliable ammo.
AmmoSquared also threw in a couple of unexpected extras:
This wasn’t something I expected or knew about ahead of time, and they didn’t know this shipment was going to be shown in a video. It was just a nice surprise.
One thing worth mentioning is customer service.
I’ve emailed AmmoSquared multiple times over the months with various questions, and they’ve always been responsive. I’ve even received replies on holidays, including the 4th of July.
They were also very helpful when I needed help figuring out shipping credits and rounding out boxes for this shipment. They handled all the math and made the process easy.
Overall, AmmoSquared has been a positive experience for me.
You’re probably not going to get ammo as cheaply as buying 1,000 rounds in bulk all at once, but it’s still very competitive. The real benefit is convenience.
I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve told myself I’d stop by the store every paycheck and grab a box of ammo — and then never actually did it. With this service, I just set it up and forget about it.
You can deposit as little or as much as you want each month, whether that’s $5, $20, $100, or more. It’s a simple way to slowly add to your ammo stockpile without having to think about it.
For me, this .30-30 will last a long time since I don’t shoot it often. Next, I’ll probably switch my allocation over to 7.62x39 to take advantage of pricing and continue stocking up.
