Got Ammo?
You may have noticed that recently there has been an ammunition shortage.
Some bloggers have ruminated on the ‘why’, and the how. I recommend people focus on the ‘where’… as in ‘where can I find some?’
Please find below the much anticipated SOTS Top 10 List of ammunition retailers.

I recommend a minimum of 1,000 rounds per weapon (90% training ammunition, 10% duty ammunition).
-By ‘training’ ammunition I mean the less expensive, factory loaded, full metal jacket ammunition such as the Winchester ‘white box’ or the Remington UMC brand. FMJ ammunition simulates ‘duty’ ammunition normally at half the cost. FMJ ammunition generally produces less lead fouling which means less time cleaning guns.
-By ‘duty’ ammunition I mean the ammunition you use for engaging goblins and harvesting quarry. Generally ‘duty’ ammunition is soft-point or jacketed hollow point.
Once you have a sufficient supply of ammunition, I recommend paying special attention to safe storage (more on that later).
If you aware of an ammunition retailer with current inventories at a decent price, let us know.
