Need advice shipping ammo

[Curnow26]

Hi
Quick question. I am planning on going to the home town for a few days. We have a range aroung the corner from the house. so i would like to ship 400 rounds .308 from my place in NV to parents house in CA. I am flying and only 100 rounds may be checked in.

What would the best method be? I have never shipped ammo before. Thanks

Who told you only 100 rounds?

Ship it UPS and put the sticker below on the box. Just print it out and tape it on.

Southwest Airlines and it might be all airlines was 11 lbs (approx 200+ .308)

and DO NOT use a TSA lock. and DO have all the information re handling of firearms with you from the airline and Home Safety.

ask me how I know.

^^ THIS!! ^^

Also, you should head to the UPS hub to ship it and NOT a UPS store. Shouldn't be an issue otherwise.

Good luck and good shooting!!
