For what purpose? Your asking a pretty broad question here. I have 3 12ga (4 barrels) and my ammo consist of this.

2 3/4 #4 steel shot (ducks)
2 3/4 sabot slugs (deer)
3" #4 (turkey)
3.5" #4 (turkey)


As you can see my ammo is designed for what species I am hunting. If your just wanting to go bang bang 2 3/4 #7-9 and buy cheap. Also what weapon are you using? Make sure you buy shells that fit.

I have a wesbite I used to get all my ammo from---had some really killer deals but I haven't bought ammo from them in awhile. Couple of my buddies say its still good. PM me and I'll pass it along.

I buy cheapo when I want to go bang bang. Premo when it matters.

My sabot lugs are light fields...14.99 for a box of 5. Yes, 5 rounds. I'm on my 5th box this year. I started shooting 3" rounds and it was just to much velocity for my 12ga to handle. I was all over the paper. After 2 boxes of that I went to 2 3/4 and it was good after 3 rounds. Combine all this and my own little war in the woods and you have empty pockets and a freezer full of meat.

Pretty much just to go "bang bang" and knock a few clays down. I bought a new O/U and want to get used to it, so I plan on spending some time at the range. I've heard Walmart has some great deals as stated by Dwitko but just wanted to check to see if someone knew of something else.

Yup, Walmart's been beating the price of any of my on-line sources.
Deliveries are on Tuesdays, by Thursday they are frequently out of most popular calibers.
