Where ot buy ammo

#1

Post by Diode »

I have been buying Winchester White box FMJ .40S&W and .45 for pratice ammo. If I buy in 500/1000 rounds at a time is there better pricing online anywhere? I don't mind changing brands either.

I've found Walmart and Academy stores have pretty good prices for the ammo you are looking for.

For my other ammo needs, I usually buy from one of these places:

I buy 115 grain 9mm WWB in boxes of 50 at the local Walmart for $4.68 each. They have the Value pack with 100 rounds for $11.98. Two boxes of 50 comes out cheaper. Go figure.

Academy has the same 50 round box like $5.84. The clerk told me they will price-match Walmart as long as it wasn't a clearance price.

Yea, I just found out today. I was looking for gun bags then started looking at ammo. The guy was trying to sell me some WWB and I said it's $4.86 at Walmart. He said all they would have to do is call Walmart or I bring an ad. I told him I still have 6 boxes at home and will keep him in mind in case Walmart runs out again.

Don't worry about hunting an ad or calling/ Just keep a receipt & they will honor that.

Sweet, thanks! That helps alot becasue it is so dang hard to find someone in wally World to open up the ammo counter.

What are you guys paying for .45acp's I know the .40s&w's are running me around $15per 100 at WM and $17 at Academy but not started buying .45s yet?
