Walmart jacked up their ammo prices.

[crispy]

I was in GM the other day and their ammo prices went way up. Speer Lawman 9mm that they used to sell for $12.99 is now $14.99.

No problem, I buy from Walmart anyway...

Oops. Federal Champion that has been $10.47 forever is now $11.97. That's a $1.50 or a 10% increase.

WWB 100 ct. is $24.99. Was $23.49.

Lady working the dept. said that they were told back in March that prices were going up. Finally happened I guess...

Remington UMC in the bulk pack was in the low $50's. TulAmmo 9mm was still under $10.

Normally, I can get good prices at Rural King. Will have to go check to see what they have done.

 

[superjoe76]

I know what you mean. The 100 WWB of .380 was $32.97, now its $37.97!! Thats $5 bucks, $.05 per round! What the heck.

I remember a few years ago when you could get Federal 550 round boxes of .22lr hollow points for $9.95/box, what happened to those days. Don't get me wrong, still the cheapest round to shoot.

Walmart in noblesville and fishers still has the federal champion 9mm for $10.47. Picked up a few boxes from both earlier today when I was out running errands.

I don't really think a $1.50 increase constitutes "jacking up the prices", particularly when they still have lower prices than most competitors.

Someone bought so much that I had to reach back in the back to get me a box lol. I was there today too. It was like $11.20 total cost.

At least the Wal Mart in Columbus finally has some ammo...

^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^

 

[c2joe]

Yep, that would have been me, looked this morning and figured I was running a little low.

 

[indykid]

We were warned that the price of ammo was going up. Too bad the rumors proved true!

 

[MrsGungho]

our distributors told us ammo prices were going up. guess they were right.

 

[IndyMedic]

I know there inconsistent. I bought a box of WWB the other day it was marked for 22.99 and it rang up as 24.99. The box before that was at a different Walmart. It was marked at 23.99 and rang up for 22.99.

 

[jwhite]

yeah.. i noticed a small price difference when i was at walmart.

.22 firearms are looking better and better........ I like .22s, but centerfire is what I love to shoot............ Getting to be EXPENSIVE!

Which is why I'm going to build a .22lr trainer for my remington 700... I'm going to get a remington 40x .22 barreled action and build it up into an exact replica of my .308, excluding glass(Don't need 25x magnification to shoot 100-200 yards with a .22)

I was just in Fishers 96th St Wal-Mart, last thursday talking to Terry the sales associate and saw my 9mm and .40 Fed had not gone up............I will stop by again today and see if it has. I live on the $15 .40 Federal Champion and anything over $15 would be inevitable but suck stil the same. Rockville Rd (Avon) "HAD" Winchester White Box 180 gr .40 at $11.99 a box and I would go in each bi monthly pay day and get 4-5 boxes, then they cought on to me and it went up 1 May to $19.99 a box .........talk about a good thing gone bad?!?

 

[hoosierdoc]

YeAh, they said it was going up 10-15% for pretty much everyone. Not walmart in particular

 

[schafe]

Come on guys!! You know we have been told that inflation is virtually non existent.(at least by the creative accounting techniques used by the current administration). Anybody here get a 1o% raise that counteracts these price hikes? ...........didn't think so.
Sheesh....I'm getting sarcastic these days. Okay, rant over.

Looks like I'll be shooting the .22 more and more.
