Target Sports is, in effect, CDNN Investments -- the CDNN you'll often see mentoned.  I've done business with CDNN (and, more recently with Target Sprots) for over 20 years, and have gotten a number of great deals during that period.   They seem to almost always make things right if you have problems, but given the high number of sales they do, you hear remarkably few complaints.

My only complaint is their shipping costs -- which is typically a fixed, flat rate (often $10, regardless of what you're buying -- but a pain if you're getting something small like sights) but they cut it down $4.99 in recent weeks for many items (for their year-end sales.)

I used to buy my bulk ammo from target sports. I would pick up at the store. People were friendly and courteous. I have read some horror stories but never personally experienced any. If I didn't get into reloading I would still buy bulk from them.

 There was a batch of 124gr FMJ sometime in the late summer that had hard primers.   We had on hand 2500 rounds for a class between my wife and me. We had about 4-5 rounds that failed to ignite with clear firing pin indentations on the primer.  To be fair, we were not using stock guns, hers a CZC SP-01 Shadow, mine a CGW SP-01, both with extended firing pins.  The CGW gun had more failures to ignite, so probably because both triggers were lightened.  Made for a good malfunction clearance practice LOL

With that said, I still have confidence in S&B.  Just took another class with S&B 115 gr with zero failures.

I've always had good results with S&B ammunition (rifle and pistol). 

If you reload or want to reload in the future, S&B is a good investment, because their cases are high quality and no one else is likely to be using them (so you won't mix them up with other peoples' cases).

That's a true statement.
