Timing is everything

Stopped by the Greenwood Rural King this morning. As usual, they have very few guns and less ammo. There was some 6.5 CM at about $1.85 per round and a bit of 300 Win Mag. Decent supply of shot shells limited to 10 boxes per customer. Shot size ???. As I was about to leave, one of the guys opened a carton which had just been brought to them. It was (drum roll please) 4 boxes of Winchester 115 gr 9mm. $50 for 200 rds............limit one per customer. All four boxes sold while I was paying for one. About a month ago, similar event happened and I got a box of 300 Aguila 9mm for $60. Neither was a screaming deal but they were deals. Particularly during the great ammo/primer drought of 2020. Right place, right time.

Yeah, right-place-right-time is NOT my middle name, lol. Glad you were able to pick some up at a decent price!

Last time there was an ammo crunch I remember guys figuring out what time ammo arrived at different stores-Walmart was Tuesday morning IIRC.
