Aren't ammo, like, super regulated in Switzerland though ?
No. You can buy it at any gun store quite easily.
This myth comes from the idea that there is ammunition paid for by the gov't for the weapon that you used in your term of conscription, that you have to use while you're at the range. If you want to pay for ammunition yourself at a regular gun store, you are more than welcome to do so.
Ammo is regulated. They can only acquire them from regulated spaces like shooting ranges. That's why the Swiss is one of the top at sports-related shooting.
