    In all of my orders from them they have a flat rate shipping of $25.00 if the order is under $200.00 before taxes, likely because the automated billing system demands it.

    Maybe try an order over the phone and ask for it in an envelope? All they can say is no... and then you can say no in reply...

    That's correct. Encouragement to tke advantage of some black Friday deals and/or some ammo

    Their shipping fee is exactly that: 25$ if order is less than 200$ (before taxes) or free if order is more than 200$.

    They don't want small orders. They've said it like a million times, they should make a sticky post about it. It's kind of their business model: low prices on high-volume with large orders. If you call them to ask, all you're gonna do is slow the whole process, especially during a sale like now while they're rushing to get our 5 gazilion orders out of the door.

    Add a case of ammos right now before the black friday sale is over. That way you'll get over 200$ and get free shipping. If you reload and don't want ammos, go for powder and primers, all on sale too (I must add those primers NEVER get on sale, they're already the cheapest there is when not on sale).

    Is there a "discreet" shipping option? Maybe I could write something in the notes.

    Wife wasn't happy about signing for "guns and explosives" (grizzly and binary exploding targets) with little kids running around the house lol

    Years ago, you would send them with "golf pro" labelling,

    I believe they offer discreet packaging (for a fee) for those who want it.
