Lots of ammo taxing schemes running around. As of right now, a lot of them are tied to ammo serialization laws.

Kentucky actually had a serialization law proposed (that died a quick death) that would include a tax of $.05 per round. Not a big deal if you buy a box of 20 rifle rounds. Pretty big deal if you buy a brick of .22lrs.

And, if I'm not mistaken, isn't there an additional tax on outdoor "sporting goods" like ammo, bows, arrows, guns and the like?
