Shipping a small box of .44 mag ammo

[jill jackson]

I was digging around and found a box of 20, 300 grain cast lead, .44 Mag ammo.
Thought about trading or selling it and it's small but heavy and I see the postal service won't ship it, so how would you ship it to make it worth selling?
It's pretty high dollar ammo but if the shipping cost is a lot I may as well keep it, even if we don't have any .44's now.

I can't see anyway shipping 20 rounds could ever be cost effective. Even if you make someone a good deal, shipping would add enough to make it cheaper to go to a local store instead.

That's sorta what I was thinking UPS is the only ones that will ship them without a big hassle and they are not cheap.

Now, this is easy.... go out and buy a .44mag. Problem solved.

I may have to get a Redhawk, just to have something they fit in.

I've owned 5 Ruger Redhawks (including a Super Redhawk) through the years and they ARE stout revolvers. The stainless one with the 5.5 inch barrel, green front sight, and Uncle Mike's Custom rubber grips was one of my favorites.

Keep it pardner. After the revolution it will come in handy...

Might come in handy for use in a trade, if nothing else.

Leave a few rounds around the house where people can see them. It's sorta like marking a tree to define your territory.

You'll have have to go to UPS and ship it ORM-D Ground. I don't think that there is any surcharge over the regular Ground shipping price.
