    Shipping Ammunition question

    I posted this in the AMMO & RELOADING SECTION also:
    I live in Santa Clarita (near Magic Mountain) and have always been hesitant to ship ammunition because I thought it was a hassle but am starting to warm up to it.Can anyone in my area give me some advice on where I should go to ship ammunition? Is the UPS Center in Sylmar my only option? Thanks, Mike

    I have been putting of sending ammo for about a month now. USPS won't ship, FedEx charges you a big fee, and UPS requires you to go to one of their main facilities. So to answer your question, i think you have to go to the Sylmar one if that is the closest actual facility.

          i actually work the Haz desk at fedex here in ontario. there is a lot less restrictions when sending ground and should be alot cheaper. fedex you must take it to a staffed location. If you guys have any questions send me a pm. i can at least give you and estimate how ever i work with express so im going to be overly expensive

                Don't forget about including the words "CARTRIDGES, SMALL ARMS" over the boxed in "ORM-D"
