The Walmart Ammo thread - Page 19

VTRich · September 19, 2009, 07:11 AM

I stopped in Walmart yesterday and they had plenty of .45ACP in the value packs, however the price is now $34.97. I bought some there a week ago for $29.97. They were out of 9mm, so not sure if there was a price increase on that.

liviussteven · September 19, 2009, 07:27 AM

Does anyone here go to walmart for expert advise on guns or ammo....???
Absolutly not!!! We all go there because we think we might find what we want at a cheaper price... that's it.... nothing else!
I can't believe anyone would go to walmart expecting expert advice on anything they sell..!!!!!! If they had experts in every dept... prices would be higher... somebody has to pay those experts!!
I can't understand how this thread even got started...
Expert advice at walmart... what a joke...!

Deaf Smith · September 19, 2009, 09:43 PM

OM Goodness! I saw THREE 100 round Winchester Valuepacks of .380 ACP at Walmart! Yes THREE of 'em!

No I didn't buy any. I have 200 rounds of FMJ still here from about a year and a half. Yes I have a few .380s, but I pack Glocks and Smith J frames.

Hope some good people get a box of them and not the scalpers.

CARGUY2244 · September 19, 2009, 10:02 PM

mine has has blazer brass 9mm in good supply for the last 4 weeks, 8.97/box, no limit.

Vt.birdhunter · September 20, 2009, 02:42 PM

My local WM has a 2 box restriction per customer. Some clerks allow me to grab 2 boxes of several types of ammo (Im a big fan of the .22WMR Dynapoints they carry and their .22 bulk packs); other clerks hold fast to the 2 box maximum, period!
After reading about profit hoarders here, makes me realize why they need to do it, still drives me crazy though to see 10 bulk packs of Federal Auto-match on the shelf and I can only buy 2, lol.

Deaf Smith · September 20, 2009, 03:42 PM

Wow. Picked up a Winchester Value pack of .38 Specials! Yep, 100 round count. All those .380s are gone in just one day (and I didn't get any.)

sserdlihc · September 20, 2009, 08:08 PM

I scored 3 boxes of federal 22lr bulk packs at Walmart the yesterday.

Beentown71 · September 20, 2009, 08:16 PM

I have seen .22 bulk packs one my last six trips to a Wally World in multiple locations.

I got 2 of those last week! I haven't seen 38's at walmart in over 6 months.

zombieslayer · September 21, 2009, 02:32 PM

walmart in Vero Beach has a few WWB 9mm 100 packs for 12.97 each, and some .40. still a drought on handgun ammo, for the most part.

WOW!!! And I paid $27.xx at Cabela's for the same thing:barf:!!! But I have bought 10 boxes of the Federal Champion 9mm though for $9.97/ea and 6 550 VP's of the Federal Champion .22LR for $16.97/ea and NO LIMIT here either.

So anymore I check the local wally world BEFORE I even think about going to a major outdoor/sports store

billyj571 · September 21, 2009, 03:31 PM

Wallmart here in Marysville WA sell the wb 9mm 100pb for $19.99 why the big diffrence.

mrt949 · September 21, 2009, 05:16 PM

How much is federal bulk $$$$.

zombieslayer · September 21, 2009, 06:09 PM

I don't know why the huge price difference but I was JUST at wally world and they got the white box value packs for 12.97. My favorite practice ammo! I paid 19.97 for the same box @ walmart in Leesburg, Fl a few weeks ago

SheepNutz · September 21, 2009, 06:25 PM

Wow, that must be a price mistake. Here in KY, 9mm WWB just went up from $20 to $22 for a 100 round box.

SigP6Carry · September 21, 2009, 06:28 PM

$22 for a 100rnd box of WWB is still pretty cheap. My Wally hasn't had em' in for a LONG time, though.

zombieslayer · September 21, 2009, 06:39 PM

The guy at walmart here in vero (I double checked the price) told me they had HUGE shipments of 9mm coming all the time and that supply is catching up. BUT he does work at walmart, so IDK we'll see. I just bought a box. He said they had like 50 cases in the back

m&p45acp10+1 · September 21, 2009, 06:41 PM

Wallyworld here has plenty of 9mm, .40 S&W, .45 auto if you show up early enough. brands seem to varry from WWB, Blazer Brass, and Federal Champion. Acadamey has several 250 round UMC value boxes of 40, and 9mm. They also had a ton of .38 spcl, and .357 mag.

old fart · September 21, 2009, 06:42 PM

when you go to wal-mart don't rely on the price on the labels next to the ammo. i went the other day they had 357mag wwb for 29.97 it scanned 24.97 i got bulk federal 22 ammo the label 18.96 it scanned 16.46 and last i bought a box of federal 150 grain 308 ammo label 17.96 scanned 13.96 so i saved more than i thought i was going too. the clerk said they are getting in ammo in good now that somehow they got mislabled, i don't care what the reason as long as i can save.

jjyergler · September 22, 2009, 08:11 AM

For the guys in Vero Beach, FL, keep an eye out, I've bought several hundred rounds of 9mm and .40 in the last two months. Federal and CCI FMJ are around $10 for 50 rds. None of the other Wal Marts seem to ever have ammo. Also, the shipments seem to come later in the day, early evening.

dougbull · September 22, 2009, 09:31 AM

I guess my wal- mart is the worst shelves have been empty since JANUARY. cept for shotgun

koolminx · September 22, 2009, 09:41 AM

The only pistol ammo on my walmart shelf was .38 special in Western Brand, and it's been like that for about 7 months...

Vt.birdhunter · September 22, 2009, 02:57 PM

Ive been paying $14.48 a box for 325 rounds of the federal automatch stuff. Dynapoint .22WMR are $7.88 a box of 50 here.

zombieslayer · September 22, 2009, 05:48 PM

Right before the drought, I bought 10 boxes of the auto match Federal. wasn't it like 9 bucks or so back then??? i may be wrong

Now I remember- The 325rd boxes were $12 before

ritepath · September 22, 2009, 08:24 PM

It's getting easier....I can't catch 223 like I was able to back in the summer, but I can find 22 40 and even 9mm (9 once in a while) and their dumb priced 7.62
