Re: ammo on sale
Round Rock Academy had Monarch 223 both brass and metal case. The brass case was 9.99/20 metal case 6.79?? Also had NATO 9mm 21-22 box ?? No 30-30 which is what I was after. I would say both rifle shelf and pistol/rifle shelf were 1/3 full. Always with the stuff I dont shoot!! Lots of 7.62mm.

Re: ammo on sale
I went there this morning for some .223 (which they had plenty). I jokingly asked about 9mm and the guy said that they had implemented a 2 box per brand per caliber limit, but it got rescinded from the higher ups. As a result the Bullet Hole (local range) had just bought up all of the cheaper 9mm they had just gotten in. He did hint that tomorrow (Wed) would be a good day to be there when they open. But take that with a grain of salt. BTW, they still had the $20 per 50 boxes of NATO 9mm for anyone desperate.Derekhie wrote:Just a heads up...the new Academy in San Antonio, on 1604 and Patranco(sp) have 45acp 100 count white box for $40 and 50 count Magtech for $20 as of this morning.

Re: ammo on sale
You can -86 the .40 and .357 ammo at the Academy on Potranco & 1604 is out and no time frame on restock.
This just doesn't seem very good to me.

A buddy called me today and told me the Academy price on the 9mm was 56 for a 250 count box. I did not make it by there today. Does that sound right from what you remember?

I just got the 45acp so I'm not sure on the other prices but that sounds about right.03Lightningrocks wrote:Derekhie wrote:Academy in Selma has 9mm, 38, 40, and 45 ammo. I just pick up 2 boxes of Remington 45acp 250 count for 90.00 each.

Re: ammo on sale
Went to Academy on 1604 near 281 in San Antonio yesterday. Was told there was a line waiting to purchase ammo before the store opened. No target Blazer or Winchester in sight. It was all purchased within minutes. I saw one lady purchase all boxes of a particular 22 caliber ammo. Noticed they had a G17L and a G24 displayed for the first time - $6ish. Everything else had moved.
Went to Sportman's Warehouse across the highway from Academy on 1604 and I'm sad to say it is closing. There was a fire sale going on, but half of the store was already empty. The economy is taking its toll.

Re: ammo on sale
man I'm not having any luck around here. I had the day off so I took off looking for ammo early (or so I thought). Stopped by 3 Walmarts and an Academy. The walmarts were cleaned out of 9mm, 40 and 45's. I talked to one of the workers that said there were people waiting at 7 am to get ammo, and they took everything we put out. She said the problem is walmart doesnt currently have a limit on the amount of boxes one can purchase at a time. Which to me was obvious. My last stop was at Academy and they did have a bunch of 9mm and 45, but no 40, which is what I'm looking for. I guess my next step is to bite the bullet for shipping and get my ammo online.
