Sportsman's Guide - good value or not?

I've been buying from Sportsman's Guide going on three years now. After the school shooting in Newtown when everyone was panicking to buy any 223/5.56 or.22lr, Sportsman's Guide was my go to source.
Their system could be easily manipulated/tricked into selling you ammo that the website claimed was out of stock. Their system would "sandbag/hold" ammo for the folks that were next in line on the waiting list. With the Jedi Mind Trick, you always became the next person in line for the ammo that's available, basically electronically cutting in line to snag the ammo, It worked like a champ and allowed you to move to the front of the waiting line to buy ammo. I stockpiled several of cases of 22lr (5000 rounds per case) and several cases of PMC Bronze .223 or X Tac 5.56 using the Jedi mind trick. Thanks to a fellow brother here on ODT and AR-15.com forum section explaining step by step how to do it. Eventually Sportsman's Guide discovered the loop hole allowing the Jedi Mind Trick and closed it down.

I still buy from them on a regular basis and love the ability to split larger purchases into 4 equal payments. S.G. is good people in my book!

Been using them for years - also have the buyers club card. Their deals arent amazing, but it is competitive. They have lots of free shipping deals and the orders are always promptly processed. If you are a high-volume shooter and buy a lot of ammo I would highly recommend getting the club membership. You can also check out the-armory.com - they have really great prices too and their shipping charges are legit.
 
If you join their buyers club and a friend wants to share your order don't try to use his credit card... That screws up their accounting system and they will change your account name to his......What a nightmare that was to fix....

Same thing happened to me a couple years ago. I never got it fixed though as it really was a nightmare to do so. I haven't bought anything from them since then.
 
They have a lot of good stuff and it's usually pretty reasonable. I'm sure I've made back what it costs to join their buyers club each year a few times over. They also have pretty good customer service and pretty fast shipping.
