Is there ammo purchase limit online? If one purchases over certain amount, they get red flagged and get put on a list of sort? Any truth to this?
Ammo purchase limit?

Not unless you live in one of the Kommie states. I've bought many thousands of rounds online. Many . . . . no issues whatsoever.
I live in California. Assuming they can get it passed this year the Commies that run this state will make it illegal to obtain ammunition in any fashion other than a face-to-face, over-the-counter sale requiring an ammunition buying license, which will be tracked. That is not now the case. With luck it will never be, but.........
What kind of list? What kind of limit?
I'm sure you're added to the list of customers for that seller... I get emails from most of the companies I have purchased from. Some companies have clauses stating they can sell your info to other companies for marketing purposes.
Many companies still have a limit on the amount of 22 lr you can purchase. Other than that the limit is your bank account or the sellers inventory. I've seen people advertise 5.56 by the 55 gallon drum, 9mm by the 10,000 count, etc.
I've never heard of retailers sharing ammo purchases with government entities.

Are you doing anything to stop it? It's up to you, and your fellow 'fornians, to beat this.

If you are worried about being on a list, put on your tin foil hat and stay away from firearm related forums and websites.

Officially and legally no. Unofficially the NSA tracks all sorts of things.

Anyone who told you buying ammo will get you put on a watch list is incorrect. (and I'm paranoid)

You get put on the UPS driver's poop list because he gets tired of carrying those heavy cases of ammo up to your door.

The only limit is your credit card and if a retailer put a cap on the amount so as not to pissing off all their customers
Do you really think Data Mining is NOT being done on guns and ammo purchases?
Walmart tracks sprays paints and chemicals for huffing.
Fertilzer purcheses and various chemicals are monitored.

My grocery monitors how much I buy and what.

There are a lot more of US buying thousands of rounds of ammo than THEM watching us buy it. I'm not too worried. There are probably trillions of rounds in civilian hands.

The most I ever bought at one time was 1000rds 223 REM and another time 1000rds 9mm.When I bought my AR15 the LGS had a pallet of 556 NATO.I think buying several thousand rounds at the same time might have raised more than a few eyebrows.
It wouldn't surprise me one bit though if someone questioned why you wanted 10,000 rds of 556 LAP.Why raise suspicion? We don't really know what goes on behind our backs.
JMHO...
