Ammunition at Walmart 10/29/21

[tony]

Walmart in Glenmont, NY had 20+ boxes (20 Rd. boxes) for $21.84/box. I believe the brand was Winchester and 149 gr. bullet so probably FMJ.

That was all they had in ammo. I saw what looked like a Henry .22 and some Mossberg shotguns.

Fuck Lawmart.

I wouldn't buy a pair of socks from them if they were the only store and it was mid February.
I'd proudly go barefoot.

 

[tony]

to each their own, I'll buy their ammunition if they have what I want...

Is the caliber meant to be a secret?

Thinking 308 by grain?

I think you are correct, I picked up 3 boxes of 7.62 x 51 fmj for a friend of mine for that price. They had 300rd Winchester super X 22lr that was some kinda 70 year anniversary collectors edition for $48.00 I passed on that!

 

[tony]

Sorry about that, it was 7.62x51 (.308)

I've found Federal 325 boxes of .22 for "normal" (ie: pre-shortage) prices at a nearby Walmart. Even found some Winchester and Federal 12 gauge trap loads (#7.5 shot)... the 100 round boxes... at "normal" prices there.

It's spotty though. Not consistent enough for me to shoot the summer or winter leagues.

I understand that.

We would all be a bit further ahead supporting small businesses and the mom & pop stores while avoiding the big box stores.
Especially those supporting the communist regime.

Sadly I have not found CCI. My Glenfield will only use CCI, unless I like having fire shoot down the magwell.

CCI SV is my go to 22lr ammo for my Ruger 77/22 been sitting on a case of it for a few years now, when the price came down some from $600.00 I grabbed it for $389.00 then it came back down even more to $249.00. CCI Mini mags and CCI AR Tactical and CCI Blazer are next in line! The Federal Auto Match shot well in my Buckmark in Bulleseye a few years back ( I didn't want to use the CCI SV ) and gave me a 250 average.

Yeah, I'm sitting on a couple thousand mini-mags in case I want to shoot competitively again. Don't have enough SV left.
In the mean time, I have a pair of Savage MK II rifles that will accept anything I put in there, and shoot relatively accurately with it. Just need a scope and thumbhole stock for one of them.

I got some CCI Blazer in that milk carton.

 

[tony]

Boooolits today ! Glenmont Walmart:

[Blimey]

Mine hasn’t had a box of *anything* the times I’ve checked in the past few months.

 

[kev74]

Middletown is getting stocked right now. They had .22, 270, 350, 12 gauge and more in cases on a stock cart.

Today (10/31) at Newburgh Walmart -

CCI 22WMR @ $27.53/125

Federal white box 7.62x51 @ $21 and change.

Plenty of 30-06 hunting ammo.

12, 20, 16, and 410 shot shells.

A few boxes of 350 legend and 1 box of 150sp 308

Depending on who's ringing you up, no limit

 

[Phauxtoe]

I think I might get a 350 legend because I see that ammo all the time everywhere!

 

[Michael]

Clay Walmart has had the same single box of .17 hmr on the shelf for about 6 months now. Only box of ammo there and when that's gone, I doubt they'll put anymore on the shelf.

 

[nortatoga]

I think I might get a 350 legend because I see that ammo all the time everywhere!

If you are looking to go with a 350 Legend checkout the Ruger Ranch Rifle, I'm very happy with mine in 5.56.

The ammo seems to be cheep too!

I believe that round also uses the same mags as 5.56?

until you buy that gun caliber .. sorry to LOL ..

I put one together in that caliber and couldn't be happier with the results. The limit of my range is 150 yards and it is very consistent with its' accuracy using a variety of hand loads, I plan to hunt with it this year.

Ammo prices seem to be rising again. They are up $0.10/round from a few months ago. Yuck.
