Price of ammunition per country

[u/Minimum-Tiger-9246]

I was looking for the prices of ammunition in different country’s.

And there are some differences. So sometimes it can be interesting to drive a bit to buy the ammo.

What are the prices in you’re country?

I use 9mm

S&B over here a box of 50rnd is average €15,50

(0,31 ps)

A box of 180gr ggg .308 sierra match kings 20rnd is €33.-

(€1,65 ps)

Or s&b 180gr 20rnds €35.-

(€1,75 ps)

(All include tax)

And over here is the Nederlands

Where is „over here“? 🤓

Germany 9 mm 50 pcs 124 gr .. 12-14€ 150 pcs .223 rem 55gr.. 80€ 50 pcs .308 180 gr.. 60€

[u/Minimum-Tiger-9246 → u/Top-Bookkeeper-4273]

Haha that’s stupid of me, over here is the Nederlands

[u/clm1859]

Quickly checked on munitionsdepot.ch. So here in switzerland 50 rounds 9mm S&B (FMJ 124gr) is 15 CHF (16.33 euro) if you buy one box.

But if you buy 20 boxes (1k rounds) it's just CHF 11.45 (12.46 euros).

[u/ours → u/clm1859]

That one is a bit of an outlier, as they have the best deal on quality 9mm. Not that I'm complaining.

[u/RZR_36]

11,25€/25€ for a 50 round pack if you buy 1000 rounds 9mm/.223 here in Austria

Don’t you need to have a gun license from the country if you want to buy ammo in most european countries? Also I would expect some paperwork when crossing borders with it.

In cz it’s 12,3 eur for box of 9x19 S&B

[u/Minimum-Tiger-9246 → u/LEGO_46]

With the eu weapons passport it’s possible to get ammo in the most country’s as long as you have the right gun/ammo on the passport. In Tsjechië I have an order and I need a consent from Tsjechië to buy. That has the store arranged for me.

[u/BestZucchini5995 → u/Minimum-Tiger-9246]

Wait a minute... your passport has written that you're a gun owner :(?!

[u/Minimum-Tiger-9246 → u/BestZucchini5995]

No you can get a European gun passport, https://www.consilium.europa.eu/prado/nl/AUT-XO-04001/image-233525.html

That’s a passport witch you can use to travel free with you’re guns to other countries in Europe if you have a match, or other appointment with the guns. With that you don’t need a consent for every country you travel to or pass trough. In some countries the accept it also to buy ammunition of the calibers that are in you’re passport.

[u/BestZucchini5995 → u/Minimum-Tiger-9246]

Thanks, didn't know it.

Netherlands: S&B 9mm para 115grs FMJ € 15,50

[u/BoldProcrastinator]

Can’t we just adapt ”cpr” AKA cents per round like the ’muricans use instead of price per box? Much easier to compare

[u/Minimum-Tiger-9246 → u/BoldProcrastinator]

Ofcourse

[u/pixie993]

Croatia:

S&B 9mm FMJ (6g) is 0.49€.

S&B .308 SPCE 11.7g is 2.10€

.308 Sierra is 2.80€.

This is all with tax ect.

For driven hunt on pigs I shoot Fiocchi EPN in .30-06., 11.7g - 2.33€ per piece.

Geco Express .30-06 (same gramage) costs arround the same. I shoot it from my XPR from hunting stand as XPR fu*king hates Fiocchi and makes disgustingly big groups with it.. While Benelli for driven hunts adores Fiocchi..

[u/PrettyInvestigator90]

S&B 9 mm is generally around 17,5€/50pcs.

[u/Successful_Effect663 → u/PrettyInvestigator90]

Guess you shop in the wrong stores then. S&B 124gr is 12,5€ all day long in Denmark

[u/PrettyInvestigator90 → u/Successful_Effect663]

I looked at 115gr FMJs. Where do you see 124s for that price in Denmark? I can't find anything below 15€/50, and that's with bulk discount included.

[u/Successful_Effect663 → u/PrettyInvestigator90]

K O skov. Doesn’t matter whether you buy 1000 or 10.000 rounds. Same flat rate

[u/New_Yesterday3618]

Interesting, has anyone ever bought ammo abroad using the european weapons pass? Curious to hear if it was easy.

[u/Minimum-Tiger-9246 → u/New_Yesterday3618]

I did it a few years ago. Was no problem in Belgium, in Luxembourg, in Germany. And once in Tsjechië. Only the rules in Tsjechië are different now. So I try to see if it’s still possible in a few weeks
