When you travel out-of-state or out-of-country especially by air one of the most nagging worries is whether you and your ammunition will end up at the same place and at the same time. Here are some tips to help you “relax and enjoy the flight” as they say.
1) Don’t fly with ammo if you don’t have to.
Trying to figure out the up-to-the-second regulations of the Transportation Security Administration and the individual airlines is a headache. Seems like they change day to day and from person to person you have to deal with. If there’s a way to either buy ammo at your destination or have it shipped there well ahead of time, you might be better off. However, make some calls before hand to ensure the availability of the precise load you want to use. Perhaps you want to order it from a cataloger and have it direct shipped to someone reliable at the location you’ll be hunting. If you go this route, make the order at least a month before your hunt!
2) If you fly with ammo, go over-prepared.
