I FINALLY got to be that luck guy.

[Winamac]

Just came back from the Logansport Wal-Mart grocery shopping with the wife. Thought I would stroll back to the sporting goods department to check .22 ammo possibilities.As I got there I noticed a guy standing in front of the glass ammo case with his nose almost pressed up against the glass (like Ralphie on Christmas Story). As I got closer I saw TWO 1000 count boxes of Winchester .22. Now I know why his nose was almost up against the glass.LOL!! We both almost tackled the first attendant that we saw and demanded to buy them. He got one box and I the other. $50.00 for 1000 rounds. I was happy as Ralphie on Christmas morning. So FINALLY it was my turn to score after a year of looking.

On another note the sales girl said she has been putting out 3-4 boxes a day since about Wednesday? She said they usually last maybe 2 hours. Then on another note Logansport Rural King now has firearms in stock. Both handguns and rifles.

Nice experience. My wife had a similar incident a couple weeks ago but she only brought home 300 rounds of Mini Mag. I didn't complain.

Good for you!! I was that lucky guy about 4 months ago, I got a 1000 rds of M22 at Rural King. Last month I got 3 225 ct boxes of Rem Golden bullet at the Angola Wal-Mart.

I bet I'm not the only one that knew exactly where this thread was going before opening it. Congrats on a very good score!

I am in the same boat as you. I have no interest in standing around and waiting for ammo, however, if some is available when I do check, I buy it.

I had a false hope a while back. The local Wally World had some ammo cans on the top shelf sitting above the 22lr tag so I asked is the price was right. The guy said it was 223 cans that had to be stored up there. :-(

Scored 11 bulk packs yesterday. I'm tired of walmart BS

 

[indyk]

So you bought "11" bulk packs, and America sits and wonders why .22 cant stay on the shelf.
Im thinkin 3 of your 11 bulk packs will probably head to the marketplace somewhere ey?
75-80$ box?

I myself dont need it, got plenty before a few of you started hoarding it.

 

[trailrider]

Still don't get the whole 22 ammo hoarding thing. Everone knows a 22 wont kill a zombie. Local gun store owner has been going to walmart with his buddies on ammo day and buying all of it and putting it on his shelf for 3 x the cost. He lost my business.Think about all the kids who wont be able to learn to shoot with dad or papa because they can'ty get plinking ammo.

Indeed, which store is doing this? I'd like to boycott.

I don't have an abundance of .22 ammo but i'm not gonna let it control my life by actively seeking it out either.

 

[IndyLongColt]

It happens here too, LOL.

Sounds to me like somebody is a bit jealous… I never sell ammo that I have a firearm for, unless it is just ammo I do not need. Its none of your business what I do with my bulk packs same as its none of my business what you do with yours.

So lucky to find any at Walmart. I have tried for the last couple of months to get some from my local Walmart and people are waiting there at 6:30 to get it. I have given up on that idea of getting any from there.

To be honest I had given up as well. I was just checking out of boredom from grocery shopping with the wife. Just plain dumb luck. I looked again today...nothing.

 

[timber1033]

The problem is they will never tell you when they are getting any at the store. Then when they get a shipment in, it is a very small amount. Its not worth it to me to get up at 6 a.m. every morning for maybe they will have it.
