Scored 556 at Pearland Walmart

Did my daily ammo check at the east Pearland Walmart after dropping the kids at school.
Not expecting anything I saw Winchester 556/ 20 rd on the shelf. at .60/rd
Bought my 3 box daily limit, went home to get the wife for Starbucks, stopped back by walmart so she could by her 3 box limit. 2 boxes left as of 8 am.
I love the sound smell of jet fuel in the morning.

$0.60 a squeeze...yeowch.

Glad you could at least find some. This working during the day thing really stinks for finding ammo deals in stores. :lol:

556 is pricy but some are charging that for 223. I have another month or so before I finish my first AR so it would be nice to have some rounds around when I am ready for its first range trip.
I am already collecting parts for my second build, a deticated .22 pink AR for the wife and girls.

A week ago my local Walmart had independence 5.56 for 49 cents a round. The shocking part was it stayed on the shelf for a couple days!

I managed to score three 100 round boxes of Federal .223 at WM while I was in San Antonio over the weekend. Showed up at 6:30 to find I was 6th in line, luckily the guys in front of me all wanted 9mm and .22.
Success always occurs in private, and failure in full view.
