Headed out for a varmint trip this summer, but don’t have the time (or the right tools) to load all your own ammo? Well don’t worry, we’ve found online ammunition vendors that carry a big selection of popular varmint cartridge types, from .17 caliber up to the popular 6mm varmint cartridges. OutdoorLimited.com offers a wide selection of rifle ammo types, including some hard-to-find types such as 22 Nosler and .221 Fireball. In addition, MidwayUSA has good small-caliber ammo available, including .204 Ruger, .223 Rem, and 22-250. MidwayUSA is a good place to start.

Shown below are some of the small-caliber varmint ammo types currently in stock at OutdoorLimited.com. NOTE: If you order any of this factory-loaded ammunition, you can save $10 on an order of $250 or more with CODE “10off250″.

Large Caliber Ammunition Available Also
Outdoor Limited has a big selection of larger-caliber ammunition for hunting rifles as well. You’ll find popular ammo types such as .270 Win and .308 Win, as well as big calibers such as the .338 Lapua Magnum. However, the ammo page is somewhat frustrating, as it shows some ammo varieties that are NOT in stock. You must click the photo for each ammo type to see if it is available.

Here’s an entertaining video from Fog Ammunition. Starting with boxes of bullets and bags of cartridge brass, this video shows how components are bulk-sorted, then .223 Rem ammunition is produced on a modern, linear multi-stage loading machine. In assembly-line fashion, cases are primed, powder is added, bullets are placed, final seating depth is set, and then the case is crimped.

If you’ve never seen an automated loader in action you should definitely watch this video. With this kind of machine, a new round is produced every second or so (see video 1:15 to 1:55). The .223 Remington ammunition featured in this video is loaded with Sierra BlitzKing bullets. Fog offers both rifle and pistol ammo loaded with quality components.
