Here’s what to look at before you stock up:
Buy rifle ammunition online or visit our gun shop in St. James, Missouri to pick up loads in person. Iron Hill Armory also serves customers from nearby cities including Rolla, Cuba, Salem, and Steelville.
Ammunition sales follow federal guidelines and applicable Missouri requirements, which can involve age verification and identification at the point of sale. Shipping timelines and carrier restrictions vary by product, so review checkout information carefully before placing your order.
Storage practices, transportation rules, and range protocols may differ based on circumstances. Contact the shop directly for clarification on purchase requirements, accepted identification, and current store policies.
.308 Winchester and 6.5 Creedmoor are among the most popular choices for medium and large game hunting. Both offer manageable recoil, wide ammo availability, and strong performance at common hunting distances.
No, ammunition must match the exact caliber and chambering stamped on your rifle’s barrel. Using the wrong cartridge can damage the firearm or cause serious injury.
Full metal jacket bullets are designed for target shooting and tend to penetrate without expanding. Soft point bullets expand on impact, making them better suited for hunting.
Keep ammunition in a cool, dry place away from temperature extremes and direct sunlight. Sealed containers help protect rounds from humidity and corrosion over time.
Grain refers to the weight of the bullet, with one grain equal to roughly 1/7000th of a pound. Heavier bullets typically retain energy better at range while lighter bullets often offer flatter trajectories.
Match grade ammo is loaded to tighter tolerances and produces more consistent velocities, which improves accuracy at longer ranges. For casual practice or hunting at moderate distances, standard ammo is usually sufficient.
Most rifles can handle steel cased ammo, but some manufacturers recommend against it due to chamber wear and extraction issues. Check your rifle’s owner manual before running steel cases.
Keep enough for regular practice, hunting season, and a reserve for availability gaps. Many shooters maintain a few hundred rounds per active caliber as a baseline.
