Both those calibres are available here at major gunstores, at about $US12 - $US16 ber box. Probably best to get here lest Big Brother thinks you are a terrorist.
Shave off your beard in case you are accused of hiding WMD's or muslim

What part of the country and type of game are you going to hunt?
You will also need an international visitors firearms licence and I can email you the application form. The form has to be signed by your local police in your state in the USA and costs about $US50.00, so allow 6-8 weeks to arrange.

I guess you'll be hunting with a local or a guide.
Hopefully someone with a local firearm's licence can buy the ammo for you or accompany you to a store. I really don't know whether you are legally allowed to buy ammo with an international licence. I'd definately check it out beforehand with a gunshop in the state you intend visiting. If you tell us where you'll be, I'm some of us on this forum can give you a number of a nearby shop.

Just something to consider.
