What are the laws of shipping loaded ammo? I have some loaded factory 17 hmr ammo I don’t have a rifle for anymore. Want to sell it but don’t know what the deals are for shipping?
 
As far as I know, live ammo has to be shipped ground. All the live ammo I've shipped has gone UPS Ground. And the satellite UPS stores won't accept it, I had to go to the main UPS Ground shipping hub. I know USPS won't handle it, but I'm not sure about FedEx. I'd imagine if they do, it would be a ground service as well.
 
Matthew is right. I had to drive to another town (60 mile round trip) to ship some ammo to a friend in Wyoming. Not that big of deal but the UPS stores will not ship ammo so no choice but to take it to a hub.

Could be a lonely trip so you better take a friend and it just so happens, I'm available...

That just may be a possibility, Bryan. You free for a couple weeks in June?

In addition, there are single-wall box construction requirements and weight limits.

Here is a link with information... it can get costly... I know.

I think you can call UPS and schedule a pickup. Not sure if they would charge a fee for that or not.
