    Default Best online source for bulk .38 special?

    I've found that I'm shooting my 9mm and .38 at the range the most often these days, as they are my CCW of choice. While I can find 9mm fairly cheap, the .38 is a good bit pricier. The Walmarts around here hardly ever have .38 in stock. Has anybody found any good online sites where one can save a chunk of cash by purchasing .38 in bulk?

    I've not bought ammo online, but it looks like Georgia Arms is pretty good, cause you have a choice of once-fired or new ammo:

    Lucky Gunner seems to have decent prices as well.

    Maybe you are ready to take the "next step".
    Reloading your own is VERY satisfying.

    Starting w/ 38's is a great way to go.
    Revolvers are forgiving, and straight wall pistol cases are easy to work with.

    I started out w/ 38 /357 a long time ago.
    Moved to 9mm and .40 for my buddy's pistols.
    Moved up to 8mmX57 for my bolt action mauser.
    Started casting my own bullets out of smelted down wheel weights.
    Now doing .380 .45 9mm 30-30, 7.62x39, 303 brit, 30-40 Krag, .38 .357
    .30 carbine, etc

    All I need now is brass, primers, powder, gas checks and wheel weights.

    You can get starter kits@ Midway usa, Cabelas, Hornady, RCBS, Lee, Etc.

    +1 On reloading. The best move and the most satisfying fun I have experienced. Been at it for two years and love it.

    Last Resort, it's a great idea to order in bulk when you visit the range often. We do offer bulk quantities of .38 Special ammo, as Azzy mentioned. Currently, we have just a few cases available, but we get new shipments in all the time. Our inventory is updated in real time so each time you visit you can see when we have more in stock and ready to ship.

    Thanks!
