If I was within traveling distance I would offer 40 S&W Rem (250 pack) in exchange for the 45 acp Rem. But then I have a bunch of brass that needs reloading.

I tried to ship ammo using FedEx. It turned into a nightmare. Local shippers wouldn't take it. They sent me to Portland where they ship hazardous materials. I got there and they told me they wouldn't take it. I needed to fill out an application to ship hazardous materials and use a special box that met their strength specifications. Needless to say, I pursued other means.UPS has enacted a flat-rate shipping system more recently that has knocked that price down to a more reasonable $20-$30ish(depending on zone) -- for up to a 12"x12"x12"(or comparable sq. in.) size IIRC.
Check out the shipping quote section on their website for the correct info on that.
Print out a ORD-D label & tape it on the package, take it to the hub, and one is good to go.
As for the OP...
I'll offer 25 cents a rd.

It's a tricky situation. To me, gouging is buying ammo at a store for $20 a box on Monday when ammo shipments happen to come in, then selling it online for $50 a box on Friday.With the crazy prices, I'd trade it for a caliber that you have or post it on GB. Don't gouge the friendly forum. My ignore list is quite long and distinguished now after ignoring the gougers.
He has the 500 S&W for what follows when he tosses those out the window.Three magic beans.
