It depends on the ammo you're purchasing. Unless it's incendiary or tracer rounds you should be able to purchase and ship ammo from Texas back to California. You can even take it on the plane with you - checked of course.

depending on how old you are... you have to be 21 to buy handgun ammo, and 18 to buy riffle ammo.

The argument to use if you're under 21 and need "handgun ammo" (9,40,45 etc.) is that you shoot it out of a long gun, and it my fly.

Good luck

Firearms carried as checked baggage must be unloaded, packed in a locked hard-sided container and declared to the airline at check-in. Only the passenger may have the key or combination. Small arms ammunition must be placed in an appropriate container: "securely packed in fiber, wood, or metal boxes, or other packaging specifically designed to carry small amounts of ammunition. " Under TSA regulations, ammunition may be packed in the same locked container as the unloaded firearm, but airline rules may differ.
