Answer may be somewhere on this form but I can't find it.......sure many folks selling military rifles are in same boat. Got some stuff that I would like to go with rifle. Who do you use to ship ammo within Canada? What does it cost? Any hassles?Ron (PS Moderator - if wrong form pls move)

Generally use Same Day courier, or DHL.
You can call for a quote, or get a quote on line. All you will need is the weight and dimensions, and shipping address.

According to the ruels, it needs to go by bonded courier, like Loomis, DHL or Canpar.

As an aside, I've never had a CP employee ask me what was in the parcel.

It is expressly forbidden by Canada Post. Not saying you cant slip it through but stick to ground, I have a feeling they would not take kindly to un declared ammo on an aircraft.

UPS also does it.
Shipping ammo isnt cheap.

Criminal penalties for shipping ammunition via Canada Post if you're caught.
