Looking for any ammo in the $20-$30 range. I can't find annnnnnnnnnything except for ammo at LG Outdoors and the only selection left is $40+ a box. Does anyone know where I can go. All the big guys seem to be out of it,

I see rifle ammo often at Wal Mart and Academy in the Plano, Frisco, Tx area. Center fire pistol, 22lr and 223 ammo, not so much!:(

Both Wal Mart stores close to here are loaded down with .243 Deer Thugs.

As soon as Walmart or Gander Mountain opens, run to the ammunition section, because they are limited on how much ammo they can purchase a day. Try 7:00 sharp, and you should find a selection!

I was on vacation the past two weeks and I stopped at a dozen Walmarts between NY and FL. The one thing they all had in common was 243 (and 270) ammo in stock.

Gotcha beat. Got about 750 rounds loaded and probably 750 pieces of empty brass ready to be stuffed.:D

About all I have seen lately is .243, .270 and 300wm.

This from wal-mart, bass pro and cabela's.

Wal-Mart here has plenty of 30-06, 7mm Mag, 300 WMag, couple of boxes of 243 and one box of Tula 9mm.

I do believe my next rifle purchase will be another 30-06, they have had a lot of that in the case all during this shortage.

I was on cabelas and bass pro earlier this week and all .243 was out of stock. I also live in CT so walmart and dicks no longer sell ammo and I don't think there are any of the other outdoor stores you mentioned close.

USA Ammo has both 90 and 100gr SPs in stock. it's not the most accurate stuff around but it's minute of deer inside 200 yards.
