In small quantities I use Acadamy Sports. If I am buying in bulk you can check out good to go ammo. They can be found at http://www.goodtogoammo.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; They are in Plano and you can stop by and pick up to avoid shipping charges.
I've spent a lot of money on guns, bullets and holsters.... The rest I've just squandered away!

Ammoman charges neither shipping nor tax to Texas. I purchased 1,000 rounds of S&B at $11.45 a box of 50 delivered a couple of months ago.

My Beretta Model 84 loves Remington Golden Sabers. They're very reliable and expand well at short-barrel velocities. You can get 'em online at Target Sports USA (http://www.targetsportsusa.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) right now - $12.99 for a box of 25, or $259.80 for a case of 20 boxes (500 rounds) plus free shipping. Highly recommended.

For practice with my CC P238, I just buy Winchester White Box or PMC Bronze or Lawman at Academy. For carry, I don't skimp - my life may depend on it - I order 100 gr. hardcasts from Buffalo Bore.

I don't see where they're so cheap. Their cheapest 380 and 9mm ammo is $189/500. That's $18.90 per 50 rounds. At Academy, you can get 9mm at $12 per 50, .380 at $14 per 50. Even with tax, that's way cheaper, and you get it handed to you right over the counter.

Yes, that is. Ammoman changes prices and stock daily. Check back and it will be cheaper at another time. I am sure the Academy price isn't for Sellier and Belot however, and my $11.45 a box (no tax or shipping) was.

I wait until I have a 750 rd (or more) order so shippings works out OK. I haven't shot much of the .380 Blaster yet but I've had good luck with a bunch of the 9mm. The new 9mm/.380 seems to be using Hornady XTP (or something very similar).

The brand new Walmart near I-10 and Yale had lots of .380, its not like the old days two years ago, when you couldn't find it anywhere for any price.

The WALMART in Mainsfield Tx had a good supply of 380's and 9/mm in several brands. Prices were near retail. but they had stock.
Things may change now after the election. I carry with factory rounds but reload with Hornaday HP's.
Things get bad and I will use cast Bullets made from linotype metal.
